This is exactly how a turbo works. You don't get full boost until 3,000 or so
and only under at least heavy throttle if not WOT. A supercharger will
gradually build boost in relation to RPM because it is driven off of the
accessory drive. Turbo's run in vacuum or zero boost most of the time under
moderate acceleration. But for a daily driver I would recommend a
supercharger.
