Turbo setups are great, but it's more money and from what I hear more difficult to tune. It really depends what you want to do with the car. IMO, unless your shooting for a 900hp+ race car, it's not worth it to go turbo. I've toyed with the idea, but I figure I can get similiar power out of a blower and save some cash.

Have to agree with you man turbo are a great setup but man they are so exspensive. I also thought about turbo but gonna go with the Procharger or Vortech, still haven't decided...

Turbo, its like free power. I was thinking KB for my car but i really like the twin turbo setups. If you want instant power down low, go for a twin screw.
