Turbo seems to be the way to go if you want to blow up your motor. I have been looking over the past few days, and it seems most of the "oh my motor is blown what do I do" threads are turbo related. At least when the supercharger craps out its 250 dollars to fix and your back better than stock.

While this is true, the supercharger has a warranty backing it, at least during its "problem-matic period". Its really hit or miss with either. I just see too many issues with turbos being on a DD and too many issues. The TRD S/C runs fine no matter what the weather is, it can be 18 degrees out or 95 degrees out, it still runs fine. Try that with a turbo and you better have 2 tunes ready. I think its much less work and time and money involved if you supercharge.
yep those turbos sure look tempting... but like i said
that supercharger is definitely is calling me out, BUT when i have the funds disposable, im sure i would have done enough research to chose from the 2.
but you people let me know what you have and why you love it
would help much!

I have the supercharger becuase its different. There are 2 others here in georgia that Im aware of that are S/Cd. An Azure peal driven by some pregnant chick (_____) and some one in South georgia thats got a ZPI 9 pound pulley. While turbos on the other hand.... Where do I start? My roommate has one, one of the guy in Scinergyie, some kid we ran into @ Barrett (Where people hang out). The point is that no one has the superchargers here, and I like to be different. Plus I got mine for 1300 shipped. Couldnt pass that up last summer.
ok...
since ur in cali, im gonna recommend going supercharged just so you can remain quasi-street legal depending on the supporting mods you get with it...
me personally, i love my s/c setup and i have 220whp and 211 lb/ft of torque with just a catback exhaust, s/c, 9 lb pulley, and custom CAI setup...not bad for a total of 2300 dollars...an 80whp increase. But i do recommend getting the upgraded bearing/seal kit from kikcaffeine who posted a couple of posts up...u need better bearings for the supercharger if you want it to last
