Go with the turbo, IMO.
Here are a few links to help you learn about each type of unit. Turbo's & Centrifugal type s/c'ers make more power in the middle & top of the powerband. Roots type & Whipples, or twin screws, make better power in the lower half of the powerband. So it all depends on what you want & when you want it. Learn about twin screw's (Whipple): Twin Screw Learn about Roots type: Roots Learn about Centrifugal s/cers: Centri's Learn about turbos: Turbos
