Dont allow or just dont use turbos?
Those superchargers take massive amounts of power to turn. I dont know that you'd ever get a turbo that size spinning on one of those motors. I agree with the superiority of turbos, but you run into a certain size limit dictated by what you can spool without choking the motor. Superchargers dont suffer from that. They provide the power necessary to turn the supercharger early on in the powerband where its needed.
