8th gen Civic Si: Turbo questions

this can be debated back and forth..
!st off, the supercharger will build when you get to the powerband and will only make 7-8lbs. for 3000.00 , Id like to have more room to grow.
since the turbo scene for 8th gens arent as supportive as the 5th and 6th, it will have to be custom made. But the sky is the limit, after a Kpro, you should be able to ajust your HP levels where as a SC your stuck.

have a buddy who had a turbo 06 si and it was decent...all cusotm, it was well done...got rid of it and bought a truck?...
Turbo is free horsepower. It uses your exhaust gases to spin the turbo and make power. Supercharger is belt driven which means theres another load of the motor that is slowing you down.
Boost > SC
SC is boost. But yeah turbo is way more efficient.Boost > SC
