'yes hp is good'

'turbo's have too many problems'
'i'd swap instead of turbo'
ect.....
i know people have there own opinions on the subject but for someone looking for helpful info (like myself) they're left witha dead end it seems.
The biggest problem i have is that i don't know anyone that likes tuning vics or has a great knowledge about cars, so i come here. (and i do use the search
)
so the point i'm getting to is if you were in my position what would you do.
P.S. plz flame too some of the people here are good at that

alright i get the point. It's up to me to decide what i want, how much i want to spend, and if i think i can maintain the engine after the turbo/swap.
Thanks for the input. You've turned another driver from the dark side of ignorance.
P.S. Sorry to anyone who cringed when they saw my first post, but i did find out that people still like to debate between the two options.

I think they use copy/paste to bring info from one thread to another.
