JMO if you go supercharged get a KB.....but if you go turbo make it worth while and twin turbo it like SSkiller did. Im truely in love with the sound of the turbos blow off the line.....supercharges sound nice too but after hearing them alot it get kinda annoying.









.................................btw how much are twins like 10 g's or something?

uh... you can get just as much outa a single turbo set up as you can a twin. what the MAIN differance is is spool up time. twins spool faster.

to answer ur question i think u should go with the KB....you're gonna reach 120 easy, besides they sound sick and with all that torque, nothin will touch u off the line, and if ur not lookin to go passed 120, just put in high gears with a twin screw and ur set! not much will touch u with that 347!

the thing i dont like about nitrous is that its not constantly there, with a turbo or supercharger as long as everything is in good shape u can pull that extra power at any given time and not have to hit a button or watever and realize o im outta n2o opps lol but yeah the import crowd really took the nitrous thing and blew it up with Fast and the Furious
