I steered personally away from S/C's for years and stuck with carb'd motors because of all of the fuel injection hassle but I am heading the way of HUGE frickin S/C. Turbos, I have never been too fond of at all but JESUS the numbers those things punch out are super insane sick. Especially that Hellion. But meh....I like the blower for day to day operations although you will get opinions on the Turbo for day to day. Bottom line, you will consistently produce good numbers with both it is a matter of how much you wanna spend that determines how fast you wanna go as always.
