turbos will always make more power than the supers will. the kb will have more right at the bottem than the turbo but trubos still make good torqu down low. i say go for the turbo seup

i think the turbo is the way to go...but they are expensive and u gotta deal with turbo lag...that is a big factor...if ur auto get a stall...cuz u wanna get the turbo wound up a good deal when takin off. thats the only downside...and its not a big deal

unless you get like a t3 which would be an idiotic move as performance mod choice for the car this guy is tryin to make...plus he sed hellion...thats a good brand turbo...he will be set and his turbo lag might be .5 of second at the start if that! cuz first gear with 4.10s in manual will be less then 2 seconds with a stock set up and onlly the 4.10s. by the time he gets turbo i bet it'll take him .3 of second til his turbo spools with that hellion |

Aren't the turbo kits around $6K? An entry level KB SC is $4K. It will produce 6psi and run on 93 and not need an intercooler.
With a turbo alky injection is about a necessity on pump. 93 octane would limit most of the larger turbo's to 18psi or so. A turbo flowing much over 600CFM or 44lbs. a minute would have to stay at the 18psi level. Personally I would choose the KB kit if I go FI someday. I have had a lot of turbo experience and they are quite a rush when boost hits hard and plants you into the seat back! I had an AWD Talon and modded to the max. 30psi and required a mix of 112 leaded octane with 93 or sometimes straight 112. Good luck with the FI and let us know what the turbo system you are interested in costs please, mark

Thanks a lot guys..I appreciate all of your opinion..so much..it means a lot..My mind was set on getting a Cobra so bad..but I was thinking..I got a GT out there that I love to death and I'm throwing it away and trying to get a Cobra..I mean..hell yes, A cobra is an awesome start and easy to get going real fast..but than you die so whats the point of that lol..just kiddin..but there awesome..but I just think it would be fun to make a GT faster than a KBed Cobra and it's possible..and make the GT lighter..get iton a diet haha. And i'd be eating KBed Cobra's out there. Just gotta be smart with what I pick and get the GT real light lol.

A supercharger is going to be easier to install for sure and cheaper. If you are going to get a turbo, you need a twin turbo. I dunno what a hellion is, but if its twin, and if you have the money, go for it. But a turbo's maintenance and breakdown rate is way higher than a supercharger. But you would want a twin, since if you only had a single turbo you would only get the exhaust from only half of your cylinders. You probably know that though. I would get a supercharger. If you are thinking turbo, you would prbly have the money for a good kenne bell twinscrew you could pop on there. You would get massive gains throughout the entire powerband instead of waiting to spool up. You'd still rape no matter what. But the cheaper, easier, still just as good if not better choice, is a super.

Go with the turbo...
You can go with the hellion kit... But me personally I would go for a MPH Turbo Set-Up or a HP Set-up... I prefer the twins... www.modularpowerhouse.com www.turbochargedpower.com |
