Turbo systems are more complex, simply because they have more tubing, but tubing isn't moving parts, so it doesn't wear out from friction.

Turbos don't require any more maintenance than a supercharger </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I think it's alot more than just more tubings, there are wastegate and oil/cooler lines you have to worried about to keep the turbo system running, not to mention the turbo itself. Any of those componenet failure can cause high dollar repairs to your turbo system or even your engine.

I'm not saying supercharger is better but its just more pratical for the common people.
