My last 1bedroom apt with garage was originally 835 but I moved out because they jacked my rent to 900 ( my neighbor was paying 600 for the same apt.) current place is a lot nicer but costs 1020 per month ( and about 200sq ft larger)

Wrong guy.lol. I do currently have an AP1 on advans and some shitty D2 coilovers. Have a stage 1 SOS kit on the car but want to sell since the power curve isn't there like I would like it. Want to go with a turbo application but I don't think that will be till I finish school.

Awa, ok. Figured id ask cause his screen name was like yours on another site, and he went into the Navy as well. But cool, cars sounds good. Are you running the stock pulley with the kit and ems? I had a 04 with the vortech kit and with a 12.5 psi pulley making 406 to the wheels. Loved it. Now im boosting my bmw lol! Im pretty sure if you sale your sos kit, you can pick up a turbo kit with that money. There's a guy down south selling a mase kit complete for 4900 obo, then theres a guy here selling a complete kit for 2900 obo. He's in the navy as well.

I was wondering what kit you were running. That's the kit I'm going to get. Just got to save up the $$. Did you install it yourself or have a shop do it?

I assisted Adam at mases shop during the Installation. He mainly did the work tho. But i did the pulley swap, and changed the belt for more power.

Yea I have the plug and play system on the car which is flashed for 6lbs. It isn't bad but I miss a turbo and how the boost kicks in at 4500 and you're at 15 lbs by 6000. With a supercharger you don't hit full boost till redline. I'm going to hold off on a turbo, probably put the money to the side for a turbo setup (would like to piece one together) or go with a replica of a muguen hard top. I won't have the finical means to deal with a turbo car as I go to school. I remember when I had my GSR-T hatch I loved it but always expected something to go wrong. My hondata died on me which was 800 to replace with tune and always the worry of when the motor would let lose. I just want to drive NA for the time being without always having to look at an AFR gauage.

Isn't a supercharger, statistically, more reliable? I mean, 400whp is nuts in this little car.

A supercharge is more reliable from WHAT I HEAR. I've only have had the car with the kit on it for a month now. I would bet to say that 400whp is crazy in an S regardless if it is supercharged or turbocharged but the power curve from a turbo is like no other. I can't really comment on the different feeling of an S supercharged and turboed since I've only had my car supercharged. I can say when I had my hatch boosted it pulled like crazy compared to this supercharger but if you look at dyno graphs you'll see what i mean with the power curves.
