the blower is nice. my friend has it on his D16 with the 8 psi upgrade. no lag...instant torque and hp right when u touch the throttle. it is quite pricey tho.

Exactly. For ~$1500 you got a GReddy kit.

I can get you a custom turbo kit like mine for $3,000.00. Brand new T3, Tial wastegate, piping, and a Greddy BOV. It will make that blower look like **** @ 8psi.

i would STILL want a blower over a turbo... as stated a blower is NOT as much power but it is nice SOLID power over the WHOLE power band as aposed to just top end

a properly sized turbo can be setup to have virtually no lag and a "solid" power curve. Who cares if the car has instant torque if it gets walked on after takeoff. Now, don't get me wrong, I love the bolt-on and go simplicity and reliabilty of the JRSC but eventually you will want more power. Getting power after that will be even more expensive. For most guys who wanna go fast without wrenching, the JRSC is the way to go. But, ulitimately, a good turbo setup owns the supercharger. Now turbo and nitrous still makes we weak in the knees but a JRSC setup nicely with a 75 shot could be really fun.:thumbup:
