Hey dude, turbo is better than n2o for the simple fact that its power that doesnt run out. Turbos are very expensive compared to a nitrous kit. If you have the cash to support a turbo build and tuning than go for it.

You can be faster than most of the turbo 2.2's on here providing you are a stick shift.

Just make sure you don't mind playing with fire.

Honestly, it's the more sensible solution. Us turbo guys just get delusions of grandeur.

booost it, you'll feel more acomplished from it and its power on demand, not at the push of a button, sure n20 is cheaper but this is power u can have as u hit the peddle no refilling :p

Holy cow, better stop running 100's. People blow their motors all the time on here with 100 shots.

Save yourself the money and just boost it, it's cheaper than a new motor.
