'''Quieter than a Roots-type supercharger and cooler than any turbocharger,'''

Finally, a Continuously Variable Transmission that Makes Sense

I am sticking with the old setup.. they must be thinking gasoline cars...all those parts can not be as rugged as our OEM turbochargers....

I'd think most of the the air heating in a turbo would be from compression, and without heat transfer. From this point of view, it's the same whether a turbo or super charger does the compression.

Another solution is a small and large turbo, the small to get going faster. I recall a magazine blurb that a recent production engine uses that.
