GF, on the xcharger website they said using a 3.31 with their s/c got a v6 a mid 13s 1/4.. do you think a 3.73 is still better?

at 7psi on that turbo system i showed you you'll probably make about 320-340rwhp vs the 270rwhp made from that xcharger on the same boost
at 9psi they made 370rwhp with the turbo
those not loss in power on the top end but it wont have the bottom end power of the roots. still it'll quickly surpass it

cons of the turbo
install is harder
not as good low end power
i believe it'll cost a couple hundred more, no more then $1k more though

pros
much more power on the top end and over all
an awsome whistle
more power per psi
easier on the motor
more fuel efficient
quicker 1/4 times!
wastegate springs are cheaper and boost controllers make getting 10-60rwhp a breeze

cons of the s/c
less power per psi
robs power
doesnt include headers
pulleys are more $$ then springs for a wastegate
not fuel efficient
e/ts wont be as impressive

pros
awsome whine
still makes nice power
easier to install
slightly cheaper

the PipeLine Intercooled Single Turbo System V6 Tuner Kit

or the PipeLine Non-Intercooled Single Turbo System V6 ??

ive run a turbo with a rich tune for 6months
ive never had more smiles and fun since ....idk i cant remember.
im sure a s/c is fun as well but im looking for 12s this weekend thats with out a tune and 8.7psi i can still turn it up to 10psi if i want and throw on some suspension

im biased toward turbos but theres no way around the fact that a turbo will make more power per psi and at the same psi as a s/c when on the same motor and similar setups

im going to say the top link
its a full kit
and with 9psi you'll be looking at over 350rwhp
that'll Kill GTs and set you in 12s for sure.
and you can even go dare devil it and turn the boost up like others and throw caution to the wind and run mid-low-flat 11s
