SC Parasitic Loss vs TT Im just kinda wondering, I know those big chargers ex. F1 do consume a good deal of power through parasitic loss, but if you'd guess how much that loss is, what would it be?
If an SC generates xxx RWHP @ ## PSI
does this mean that (ROUGHLY speaking, & assuming all else equal) on the same motor & same boost level, a TT should produce more power?
Thats what I always knew, however I am wondering when we talk about parasitic loss, can we guess how big IS the parasitic say in this scenario:
427 + SC @ 15PSI
Now lets say this combination makes 900RWHP with the parasitic loss calculated to be 100rwhp, does this mean that:
427 + TT @ 15PSI = 1000rwhp?
Guys remember those numbers are very rough and non realistic, I understand there are OTHER parameters that should be taken into consideration.

Properly sized turbos on a motor will out perform a blower. Turbos with high backpressure will go against a motor and result in hp loss.
But to answer your question, yes a turbo will make more hp at same boost level.
