Default supercharge or turbo?

I've saved enough money for a comptech super charger but some of my friends think i should just go for a turbo kit...the thing is, i've never heard of a turbo kit for the s2000....my car is an 02 s2000....can anyone suggest me on a turbo kit or if i should even get a turbo kit instead of supercharger?...i know i'll be running at low boost...like 6lbs...please help me...

6lbs...........

Go S/C........it's proven performance that last over time......bolt on and go.

Turbo is going to be a tuning nightmare and can be a $$$ pit.

Your money....but I'd go with reliability especially if your only going to get 6lbs. Maybe a tuned turbo kit with 15-20lbs would be nice....

Search the site for "turbo" and add these terms:

"ultimate racing"
"speedcraft"
"elda"
"inline"

You might also add:

"blown engine"
"nightmare"
"divorce"
