Is tossing a belt a genuine problem or a mith to confuse s/c fans?

Mex, I dont think you need to mess with your car after watching your youtube video. You seem to be the fastest thing in Mexico.

An 8 minute Poll, thats not fair. I didn't get to vote. Anyway, I vote centri, but I have a shaker.

I will tell you like it is. Turbo sucks on the street. Sure it is efficient, but the window of power is way to small. My Hellion kit is coming off monday. I ordered everything Zex had for my car. I thought maybe something was wrong with my kit till I spent about $300 on different dynos. Everybody said it ran like it was supposed to. I would highly suggest that unless you only want to run at the strip to stay away from turbo. Negatives are... Cant lower the car with out draging the ground."2"inches clearance" Cant hardly get to the oil filter... Way too quiet. Too much under hood heat. Positives are ? Maybe I looked over one.
I don't have any of these problems with mine. Even though I'm lowered it's no big deal.

Thetwo issues I've had aren't really turbo specific. I've had to replace my clutch and my fuel mileage has dropped due to my happy foot.

Turbo? Twinscrew? Centrifugal? Which one do you want?
Talk to the different shops in your area and see what they have experience with. If they have done specific kits with success, ask to talk with their customers and see the dyno results. Sometimes having an open mind and putting some faith in some skilled people will yeild great results. Do your homework and take your time. And plan to spend more than you think.

The turbo S/C debate is too emotional. Everyone thinks theirs is best because it's what they have.
