Default JRSC or Drag 3 kit?

After a long debate with a local mechanic I have been talked out of one of these and into the other.... I won't say which one 'cause I want some honest oppinions. Pretty much I have been hellbent on one and pretty much did a 180 in choice after the talk.... My gsr will be daily driven, Which one and Why....

Cool, more responses needed... Also what is the deal about the radiator being blocked and your car overheating with a turbo...?

Heatshield. For the love of god, install a heatshield. Most of your heat accumulation will be due to the turbine's proximity to the radiator and hoses. A good radiator, some good fans, and mild cowling will defeat even the most montrously sized intercooler.

Drag 3, you'll have more potential with the kit. Turbo is very versatile when it comes to upgrading, you'll find more whp going turbo. JRSC you'll be upgrading pullies and what not, it's kinda a turn off.. I'd rather turbo. Just my .02

Did you read the sticky at the top of this forum? It is all about what you're asking.

You know that you will definitely be getting biased opinions right? YOU have to know whats right for you, as far as what you want. If you want more reliability, with less potential to upgrade, but still decent power, then go JRSC. If you want the potential to make your car faster, perhaps less reliability, and a lot more power, then go Drag3.

A lot of people will argue that SCing is just as reliable as Turbo, because FI is FI, and I agree--although "out-of-the-box", I think that the JSRC is going to be a more reliable FI application then the Drag3.

There is a thread on this though, but don't base your decision on people's opinions. Base it on what you need, and what is realistic for you.
