So the vortech is sold and I will be buying a turbo manifold from KY turbo and i will be using a gt 80 turbo wit a 1.1ar with a 408 or a 390 . Hope this makes some power.lol lol.I just wanted to know did I make the right choice, and why is turbo all the the rage over the supercharger? I had nitrous for a wile and it was badass when the 150 hit ,so cant weight to feel this with 12-14 psi !

Forced induction is forced induction, but as far as SC v Turbo really depends on the person. Personally, I rather have a turbo then a SC. Its easier to increase boost, doesn't required a belt...Murphy's law, what can go wrong will go wrong. However, that can be said with a turbo setup too. For me, I like top end with a little bit of acceleration down low. SC will accelerate very well. I just don't like the idea of robbing power from the crank to make power. To each his own and irregardless of the setup you choose, you will have a beast of a car.

I love having a turbo. At the push of a button you can have more power. After I sell my old motor I'll have twins
