Engines WITHOUT superchargers or turbochargers
are considered... "normally aspirated" and can be
either fuel injected or carbureted.

Both carburetor and fuel injected systems can
be supercharged or turbo-charged.

Carb and fuel injection systems are close in weight,
but supercharging of either fuel induction system
will add a few pounds, generally speaking.
