Did you see the pics of the exhaust on their 05+ GT kit? it had single exhaust with a dummy tailpipe.

I'd say it all basically comes down to the tune, with one of the pretty popular turbo kits (Hellion, HP) you should be able to make over 400 easy with a VERY safe tune, then mabye creeping up closer to 450 if you feel lucky.

Also, at about 400 rwhp on these cars with one of those mentioned turbo kits, your torque numbers will be much higher, up around 440 or so, which is something that people seem to forget to mention.

And, IMO a properly set-up turbo kit will be much less stressful on an engine then a supercharger set-up, although either one should not cause any reliability issues if properly set-up.

its funny you mentioned that because thats EXACTLY what the guy that works on my car said....it all depends on how its set up, when the boost comes on and so forth.

it looked like the waste gate was routed to the other tail pipe.

I would go with turbo.

BUT, I wouldn't do it on one of these engines unless it was built for it. Regardless of tune, you will run a higher chance of bad juju.
