I like the Cybernation kits more. I am saving for the Stage II.

Click here, then click on turbo kits.

I've heard people's engines blowing up because of the supercharger. The charger is just another pulley on the motor. A turbo uses exhaust gases to spool up, so there is no pulley. A turbo will last a long time, as long as the setup is ok. And you watch all your gauges etc.

you wont blow up your engine w/a turbo, as long as you have it installed and setup right. just be sure to have a professional install it (which is probably gonna cost you a good deal of money) and have a professional tune it too.

here in cincy, i know a shop that would install it for $1500. thats mass money, but apparently since the K series engines are so new, its kinda tricky to install a turbo.

^ True that. Get it done right the first time and there wont be a problem. Make sure they warrenty or somehing on their work. So if something does happen, it couldnt be just your fault, if it was a install issue. You would need to have the car tuned so you get all the horsepower possible and the car will run better.
