Default Going Turbo or Supercharged?!

I'm about to spend about $6000 dollars on my s2000 and I'm having a real hard time deciding if I should go turbo or sc. Which ever way I go, i'm planning on getting the AEM EMS and street clutch too. Turbo kit I'm looking at is the rev hard kit and the supercharger is Vortech. What do you guys think....what would be the best way to spend my money? Please give me some good advice.

you're going to be short a couple grand.

Do you want a car that feels like a normal car but with more power? buy the super. If you want all-out max power, get a turbo.

I would recommend the comptech super myself. You don't have to do any drilling or tapping. It's all bolt on.

EMS=$1300-1400
Turbo/super=$4000-6000 install=$800-1200?
Clutch/flywheel/pp+install=$1500
EMS install+tuning= 300+

with a super you will have more power without spending a shyte load.

now if you want all out power. like beat my viper power....get turbo. keep in mind that you will spend a crap load of money with a turbo!

I suggest that a better use of your money is to go to a driving school. You'll learn how to get the most out of stock and should be able to out drive your peers.
