Also to me, the jury is still out on the longevity of turbos or superchargers, on engines.

Don't let the turbo-diesel crowd hear you say that. :)

Is it safe to assume you meant gas engines? We had turbocharged natural gas engines driving compressors in the 70's and they held up well. Many had been running since the early 60's. Of course the turbocharger from one of those would be a load for a pickup. The truck certainly couldn't generate enough exhaust to spin one.
