Default What is easier to maintain a turbo or juice

For a midly worked D16z6 which of the two is easier to maintain.

a cheap turbo setup boosting like 7psi or a 60shot of juice? Please state the reasons and not just opinion...Thanks

Don't know.
I know maintaining my turbo set-up is not much different then regular maintenance. I know nothing about N20 so i don't know what goes long with maintaining it. I would assume that you would need to do the same maintenance.
(oil,plugs, sceduled maint. etc)

i went through 5 bottle b4 the ls went bye bye because of me being trigger happy with the timing retarded 4 degrees and a 75 shot jet and NGK(which are better than bosche) 2 degrees colder. either way both take regular maintanence just like anyone who races their car reg u should well maintain it.
