Unsprung weight is on the wheel side of the springs and is a separate issue from torque. The flywheel is part of the sprung weight. A lightened flywheel should however improve throttle response and lessen torque loss thru the drive train.

I love posts like that. Lots of words, but zero information.

IMNSHO the base SC kits are low impact, both in install and tuning. Turbo done properly is more money, more time, more alteration from stock, and ultimately more performance.

By way of references, I ran NA for 3 years, Comptech SC (self installed) for a year and a half, and I've just completed install of the LoveFab turbo kit (waiting for it to be tuned).

I guess you've never seen Sideways dyno sheet.
I have. He's massaged that kit so hard it probably has bruises. It'll be cheaper and easier to do with a turbo.

If you have to ask us that question, you haven't done enough research. I was in your position about 3 months ago and desided to go supercharger. It was fun and brought the car to a new level of kick a$$...but I realized that I wanted to be a dyno king and now I'm going turbo. If I would have thought about it a little harder, I could have saved myself a few thousand dollars.
