Sure, a VW supercharger circa 1991 is not comparable to BMW's present-day turbos. But there are enough examples on these forums alone of people having issues with their turbos to spook me a little. Admittedly, reliability issues get blown out of proportion on car forums, but it's a plain fact that more moving parts will require more upkeep in the long run.
