I have to agree with Hypa on this. For those who want forced induction and the power advantages assosciated with FI, superchargers are the easiest route to go.

Of course you can get more power from a turbo. There's no disputing that. Turn up the boost, or add an intercooler and you're set. But for those who just want more from their daily driver and don't want to have to constantly monitor the air/fuel ratio, or detonation problems, an s/c is a viable alternative.

Before anybody asks, no I don't have one. Yet. But I have read up on this extensively and this is the conclusion that I have arrived at. For ease of maintenance and peace of mind, an s/c is the route that I am going to take. I am looking at a Vortech kit that puts out an extra 115hp for my ride. And for those who continue to say they are crap, Vortech was awarded numerous
"Best Engineered New Product" awards at SEMA.

Of course, everybody is entitled to their own opinion. This is only mine.
