Its time.. Turbos vs. Blower

I think 08 is going to be the year for boost.. At least for me.. Ive been reading about the two options for the last few days and I think im sold on the STS kit... ECS has a kit (hope they still do) that they are selling for a customer and Im about to pull the trigger.. THe more I read about the kit, the more I like the idea and in a year, I can forge the motor and go for bigger power (options are always nice)...

I was wondering if anyone had an overlay of a standard twin turbo kit vs a centri blower? Im just curious to compare the two..


Thanks,

John

Another vote for the STS. I've read up on it quite a bit and I like it a lot.

Re: Its time.. Turbos vs. Blower

congrats on your decision. You really can't go wrong with either FI option, as long as its installed correctly and you have the right supporting mods.

C5Z06... The choice was to sell my Z16 and get a C6Z06 then do a H&C kit or keep my car and get boosted... I obviously went the boosted route figuring there is a lot of potential should I decide to forge the motor.. Not that the LS7 doesn't have potential but this is a lot cheaper in the long run..
