Default Free horse power?

I watched it again while waiting for "Power Block". These two dudes explained to me how "super chargers" were "parasitic" since they took power from the crank to power the S/C, while the" turbocharger" was "free" horsepower since it was powered by the exhaust that ran anyway.

Haven't these retards ever heard of "back pressure"? I wonder why they think lowering back pressure was one of the first mods anyone in the aftermarket industry ever thought of (maybe Vick Edelbrock's father?)
