All around torque = turbo hands down, no question.

I was putting down 383rwhp/444rwtq on 13 lbs of boost on PH's mustang dyno which is notoriously stingy with numbers. Car ran 11.9 on that combo. Also it was around 400 rwtq by 2900 rpms so even at the start it is powerful.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, there is simply no competing with the turbo for pure power.
Just look on the other forum to see what cars are laying down the best et's, all turbo.
I am not bashing on sc's at all. I happen to be a big fan of the XCharger having personally driven one and they are a blast to drive. I am sure Vortech's and ProChargers are fun as well, but we are talking pure power.

Both are very good kits. The twister kit maxes out at 17psi, so if you are going all out ***** to the wall, the PH will edge it out.

both kits will produce very similar numbers. the key is higher boost for racing applications and built motors.

i believe the torque twister makes 400rwhp and 470rwtq on 12psi. mine made 410rwhp and 462rwtq on 12psi. 10 more hp, and 8 less torque. the reason for this is the smaller turbo spools up faster and makes slightly more torque. the reason it makes less power is likely due to the turbo starting to hit the end of its efficiency range. my numbers are also at a conservative 12-14 degrees of timing, and im pretty sure jen's are too.

How much did it cost you guys to purchase and install the turbo, with necessary supporting mods?
