Turbo or N/A
 
The big debate is what do you think is better for your money. A turbo aplication or droping an equal amount ofmoney into a naturaly aspired car?

RE: Turbo or N/A
 
you could drop untold fortunes into a naturally aspirated car and still not be satisfied. with n/a, you will gain a little bit of horsepower at a time with a lot of money invested.

you would have to raise your compression to realize serious gains which involves rebuilding the motor or just doing some serious head work. a naturally aspirated car would only be able to get up to about 100 hp per liter with a lot of money in it, but a turbo motor could easily push 100 hp per liter without a serious amount of boost. you could easily double your wheel hp with 8 psi on a simple turbo kit, whereas an n/a app would cost a lot of money to double the power. if you go n/a, i have some literature that i will post later from an n/a master.
