You can safely meet your requirements with either a turbo or SC, but you will get much better midrange torque with the turbo. There are great deals under the Group Buy forum for both.

for $5k, go with a S/C like the comptech unit. You'll slowly start spending more and more $$ with a turbo setup.

I personally prefer the bi setup.... A new JDM company has come up with a Bi setup....both the SC and turbo are used.... in a tuning Mag (only sold in Japan), the tuners mentioned that this product was brought into production for owners that JUST couldn't Decide on whether a SC or a Turbo would be better for them.....
The price = priceless....... the customer is always right.....
I will try and scan the article when I get a chance....
