turbo=less money SC=more money..........i like superchargers, but then turbo is less pricey and more maintenance ......if you get supercharger, JRSC are the best.

If it's a daily driver, I have to recommend getting the Supercharger. YOu'll get pull from the touch of the gas. Where as w/Turbo you won't feel it till it spools. Not saying Turbo's are no good for daily driving, but SC's are better for daily driving IMO.

u prob have 160hp or up on ur car so if i were u id go with the SC cause i reccomend them to most of the people who ask me, ur car is not prepared for handling the turbo, unless ur not running boost the turbo would be ok on ur engine, but i just like superchargers alot better, were u gunna go with a custom turbo or a turbo kit?????

Go turbo. it is cheap and it will give ya tha horses. If you want to run high psi though, get your engine managed and ready to handle the boost. I recomend the revhard turbos.

if you want to keep it simple and low maint. go with the SC. I prefer turbo because it is more fun but SC is fine. the extra money you spend on an SC will save you money that you will spend on your turbo setup later
