Turbo vs SC ..

Comes down to power vs response. You'll always have spool time on a turbo, and you'll never get the same power with a SC.

I was SC'ed (~375bhp), and now making the choice again ..

Both can be DIY'ed , apart from the mapping.

When I removed my full Mugen mods I noticed pretty much zero difference apart from the weight. Cost of all the mods new? Intake, manifold, decat, ti exhaust - probably
