Turbos run a lot hotter then SC. Timer isn't a bad idea to protect the investment.
Dustin, I forget if you had your 1200 running at max rpm or not (aka 3-3.2") if you did I would be curious to know what your thoughts on the Turbo is in comparison. I realize there is going to be more mid range power because the turbo can produce full pressure in the mid range unlike a sc, but how about the pull at the upper range... full out, when ripping through the gears?

If given the same max hp I am sure the turbo will be much faster anywhere in the rpm range besides redline. The sc does have the surge feel where it get's more and more but the turbo would already be at the "more" much earlier on. For actual acceleration it should be night and day difference.
I am really tempted to get this kit this winter if I decide to go ahead with a motor build and keep my S.

Ive just spent the past 30 minutes making dyno graphs to post later today when I get my car back. They compare the F20C, F22C, CT N1200 AC, CT N1000 UR FMIC, SOS 1200 AC, and the SOS 1220SL AC. Man I have wasted so much money on this car...
I dropped the car off at 8am this morning. I am hoping to have it back before the day is over with.

I was only running a 3.6 pulley at 412ish whp. I can only assume the car will die off or the "surge" will go away at the higher rpms. Whereas the blower kept increasing boost pressure

You don't need a turbo timer on a water cooled turbo. Defeats the purpose of having one.

Glad someone has all that extra coin to try out all these set ups and post graphs for us. 
Be sure and add accurate info on dyno type and psi seen from each set up for proper comparison and consideration

I think the point is it's not needed, that is why all production cars have water cooled turbos. None of them have turbo timers. If it makes you sleep better at night then by all means get one.
