hey guys, ive been looking into both turbochargers and superchargers for my 03 gt, just wanting to hear some opinions on what i should go with, i absoulty love turbos but i know their systems will be alot more cash and lots more work to maintain and such, but either way i am looking for lots of rwhp. Thanks

Turbo will make the most power hands down. Your right about it costing nearly twice as much and not lasting nearly as long without maintenance. I had a procharger and loved it. All I ever did was change the oil in it and replaced a seal myself once. If money is not an issue I'd go with the turbo. If it is then I'd get a supercharger.

I have also had two procharged cars without any regret, would love a turbo setup but cost alot of money.

if you can afford the turbo setup, go that route but if money is an issue your better off with a sc

time and paitence for a turbo, ALOT more work for the prepping and install. hope your quite the handyman/mechanic if going that route, i researched both pretty hard, just didn't have the time and money to go that way, so now my procharger is in my closet :-( waiting for a fuel pump,injectors,maf,fuel lines, and another forged motor

Are you buying or building the kit? If you're building it, personally I prefer building turbo kits. If you're buying it the s/c is the easier by far. As far as maintaining, I don't find them difficult or very time consuming at all. Change the oil on time & let it sit for a few seconds before shutting it off (or buy a turbo timer) to prevent coking. It won't fail from that instantly if you don't, that's more of over a long period of time type thing. Those are the two major things different between the two.
