in the end it really just comes down to money and down time.
- turbos are more unreliable than a SC
- turbos are more expensive
- turbos need more tuning
- turbos boost higher
do i want a turbo...yes...am i buying one...no...im buying a SC...its in the budget

If you want to keep up with an FI M3, you'll need a pretty substantial turbo.
And ask these guys what your dad should get.
