alfunky99: since the other people that replied to you didn't seem to be to helpful *sneers* let me try and be of service... from my understanding, a supercharger is mainly for low end power and torque.. while a turbo spins up at around 3500 rpm or higher..

now it's my personal experience (2k1 tib) that i don't really need any extra hp off the line since i can light up my tires in second gear.. however, you can never have too much high end power.. i would go with the turbo.. (besides the fact that it starts to spin up right at the begening of the power curve.. go DOHC go!)
