Ok, if you notice the EVO in the vid is at 30KPH (less than 30MPH) in high gear (5th? I dont know what gears the EVO 8 has). No street car is going to just take off like a rocket. Yes the rental probably has different gearing and obviously lighter weight. A S/C would have performed better here as it builds power in-sync with engine revs. A turbo has to build up alot of energy in the turbine before it can produce appreciable boost, especially large turbos.
Re-read my previous comment.

Turbos put a lot of stress on an engine at high boost because the power comes on so fast, too hard. That puts alot of extra stress on internals. S/C slowly build power up thru the entire power band making the rise in power less stressful.

Where in these statements did I say the contrary to your last remarks. Check again. They are the same.

i think u've got it the other way around dude, the s/c is already spooling since it runs off the pulley, HELLO!!!, and the turbo needs to spool up so power kicks in at higher RPM's
