From the post:

>If there’s a way to add power to a car, you can bet it’s been tested on the drag strip. That’s the one place you’ll find more superstitions than on a baseball field—eating peanuts in the pits, wearing lucky underwear, that type of thing—but only because people are serious about going fast. They’re so serious that they’re willing to try anything that nets them a lower quarter-mile time and a higher trap speed, even if it means ditching the hardware that’s worked for generations. We’re seeing that right now as a small group of drag racers are shelving their turbos and belt-driven blowers for power adders that look like scuba tanks.

Essentially, they're moving the process outside the car's engine in the same way electric vehicles move the exhaust system away from the vehicle.
