Default Blitz SC or Turbo or PE SC

As soon as I get my xB I'm going to add 1 of those 3. but I've heard so many different things about which is better. I want reliability, but I also want a box that will keep up with my accord V6 coupe.

ATTN: Drivers that have SC's or Turbos: Please post your recommendations or downsides

Buy a tC. Thats what I would say, if its a new accord v6 you have 240HP pushing around your 3274 weight, thats a 1HP for every 13.6Lbs. Even if you could get 160HP from the xB that would be a 1HP to almost 15Lbs. Now to keep up with your accord though you need that low end tq that you just wont get with the xB. So go with the tC, you get a stock 1HP to 18Lbs. Not that amazing but when someone comes out with a s/c for it figure about a 40% HP gain & you got a 1HP to about 13Lbs so that would keep up with your honda. Just my $.02

I agree with the above statement.

Mine is the 200 hp V6 not the 240. Irregardless, If a SCed xB can put 120 to the ground on a 2400 lb car that gives a P/W of 20.12 which is pretty quick. I don't want to buy a TC because I've already got a coupe. I like the fact the xB looks cool and has the cargo capacity of a small van.

Back to my question: Any testamonials on the pros and cons of the SCs out there

I would go with the PE SC! I think it was matchbox who just installed PE SC. Pm him on the pros and cons with the PE SC. I don't know if you have an auto xB or not, but the Blitz SC has problems. I couldn't remember what it was, but go to the forum concerning need an xB to install PE SC.
