There you go!

If you have to ask you should get a S/C. You will not be happy with how much time you have to put into the car. I have the InlinePro kit with a custom turbo, if you want big power tehn this is the way to go. If you want 300-350rwhp then get the S/C

hmm, judging buy your post - probably nothing

But really what are you looking for - peak, quick spool, big boost...etc? Oh, and be sure to look at your finances before you jump into a boost project.

Lovefab is the only one I've seen that doesn't suck.

Untill they include some real EMS they'll still suck compared to what Cody's offering IMO. I'm not bashing thier hardware everything looks really nice but the kit is missing argueably the most important peice.

That makes NO sense at all. The EMS can be put into ANY car! I have one? Inlines price is the same as "cody" with the EMS. With Inline you get about 150MORE RWHP. I really dont like how the piping looks on lovefabs. I like inline because it has more power with out teh bottom end being done and it has a strong cast mani!

sweet. im still trying to decide ebtween s/c and turbo
my friend says i should use a turbo because s/cs are for low reving engines
but all the s2k sites ive seen all put comptech s/cs in their cars. or at elast most of them.
so i was just trying to get some advice. money isnt an issue, at least not right now. i make enough to do pretty much whatever i want with the car.
thanks guys.

yeah but heres the thing, once you buy EMS for the Inline kit you are in the same ball park for price as the lovefab...IMO the best turbo kit would be a combination of the lovefab and inline components...

ex: lovefab manifold and turbo with an inline 3mm headgasket and FMIC setup

inline pro turbo and lovefab turbo were created for different things......inline was made for overall power (high numbers) where lovefab was made for streetability and for road tracks.....

inline pro = 450rwhp at 18psi
lovefab = 350rwhp at 8psi

I think you're missing my point... Untill they include a real EMS system that you don't have to go out and buy on your own Lovefab &gt; InlinePro. Sure you can add it to the kit once you do that I won't have **** negative to say. But I love how you completely forget to mention that they made more power at almost twice the boost with the aide of a spacer head gasket... All things being equal I'd still take LF becasue I like the turbo placement better and custom fabricated mani &gt; generic cast stuff.

I'll say this about Lovefab's kit. I've spent some time in the passenger seat of that car and it transform a slick roadster into a daily-driveable beast.

The power is so immediate and strong, it feels like the car was MEANT to be that quick! It rips all the way to 9, too. If I had an S, I'd go with Lovefab's kit. Its usefull horsepower in a gorgous package.

No B.S. I'd do it but I'd procrastinate for 2-3 years before going through with it.
