best suggestion is that you use the "SEARCH" feature and read topics that have been discussed many hundred times.

is just an example you can find using search.

Like Mingster said, check the search feature as there's tons of info on this topic. But to sum it up, SC is around $2000-$3000 (I think), Turbo is around $6000-$8000. There is much more of a performance gain with a turbo, but you're also creeping into uncharted territory. As there are only 2 maybe 3 S2K's with Turbo's.

If you're really serious about it... Wesmaster is the name that comes to mind when talking about SC. ChrisD with Turbo's. Hope you guys don't mind me mentioning you.

Hope that helps a bit.
