it really depends on the power you want to run. under 400whp I'd go with the stage one tuning supercharger kit. it uses an eaton blower so full boost from just off idle to redline with no lag. beyond 400whp I'd go with Mase's turbo kit, that's what I'm doing.

Even though this is an old thread, check out the Kraftwerks Rotrex-based supercharger kits. They are currently the best of both worlds.

I was gonna say the same thing

OJ has been up to his magical tricks again and the kit seems pretty good for a non turbo kit.

Its simplicity is awesome too compared to piecing together a GT30R kit or something small/responsive

thanks for all the advice, i got it turbocharged and its a beast its running 701 hp, its on youtube, me and my buddy put a lot of money into it, in the video thats wut it looked like, if u go and look at my gallery thats wut it is when i posted them, the video is about 6 to 8 months old, so still new. i plan on getting an all carbon fibre shell, to dramatically reduce the wait or maybe bring in a C32b v6 motor, gonna take a big chunk out a my wallet, but ill update the pics and status soon
