I have the hellion turbo kit, there are soem definite pros and cons to a turbo over a s/c.
Pros- more power,easy adjustability, more efficient, less heat

cons- cost (2-3 times what a KB would), lag, not a direct bolt in (longer install), supporting mods cost (really should build the motor, upgrade trans components, fuel system) all said and done i have 24-25 k wrapped up in my build.

Turbo FTW in my opinion, i will be able to get a few hundred more hp out of the turbo than what can be had with a KB.

+1....my indecisive mind is probably going turbo. Not going crazy until I can have a shortblock built. Probably only run 7lbs max.

Go to www.turbomustangs.comthey have the best site to research from IMO.
