Your at 450rwhp with no bolt-ons???
What are you considering to be bolt-ons?
Welcome to the website!
This is a great forum, about the best place I've found for information and also a great source for buying used parts.
Good luck with your build!
And about your question, I'm going turbo on my build. I have run NA, then I went supercharged, got addicted to boost; so now I'm going to try out turbo.
Power is power though and it is all fun!
Turbo is my vote!
And check out the vendors on the right side, they are all good sources for performance parts, as is ebay and the classified section on this forum

SC is an easier build than turbo and for the power range you are looking at enough.
What is your budget? You are looking at $10K in parts.
All the sponsors are on the right>>>>>>>>>>

Yea, I'm doing an ultra budget build and my engine/trans combo using a $500 junkyard 5.3L and rebuilding a TH400 myself is going to be right at 7k, so it is pretty damn expensive.
You should be able to have a pretty nice setup for 12k, with much more than 500rwhp.

Cheapest and easiest is the jug, thats for sure. But I do 98% street driving so I wouldnt want to have to worry about my bottle being full. Turbo/Supercharger is always there for you when you need it!
If your mostly concerned with track then bottle would be the economical choice.
