Default Daily Driver Suggestions

I have a ap1 and i have been very interested in a FI setup for a while now. All i have as of now is i/e, and i am going to be using my S as a daily driver for the spring/ summer time. I was looking a little into sc because iv heard its less stress on the motor, however, i have always been a big fan of a turbo setup.
I was wondering about your suggestions on whats a good turbo set up UR or inline pro (want the lovefab but too expensive for me) also how many psi is good for a daily driver.

I drove on the UR kit for 10k miles for about a year. No problems. Great setup, lots of fun, and great sounds.

If you have a good tuner then you can really have a turbo or SC setup for daily driving, but it also depends what type of person you are. I will always believe that Turbo>SC, but if you are the type that wants to install it and pretty much forget about it then go with the SC with your daily driver, but if you don't mind looking after it then go with the turbo. Also, if I were to choose between inlinePRO and UR, I would go with the inline kit.

The Inline kit is very clean.

The inline kit looks cheaper on paper than the lovefab, but that's because it doesn't include any type of engine management. And you NEED some type of management to get it working. AEM EMS is about $1400 bucks.

Also, does your state have smog inspections? OdbII inspection? If so you can't legally drive your car in that state. It won't pass emissions.

If I lived in a non emissions state, I would have went the turbo route. But here in NJ, where they make Cali emissions look good... I went Comptech SC'r.
