The supercharger sees only the pressure
No, the engine see density not pressure.

1. Whenever you include temperature, you are really talking about density.

Temperature correction does not change the FTH in the pressure altitude scale, only the power at the given pressure altitude.
IF the engine is equipped with a density controller. If it has a pressure relief valve, then it is dependent upon density altitude.

If it has an absolute pressure valve or a variable pressure controller then it is subject to density altitude effects.
