here is the thing when ur at the light and u got a kenne bell on ur left and twin turbos on the right well the blower is going to pull depending on how much boost he is pushing....2 types of blowers centrifical like a turbo on a pulley and roots type,twin screw witch make both incredible power remember turbo's are also using hot air so there is a lot to question but the supercharger will pull at first then the turbo will catch up.....all depends on how much boost there pushing....with a blower u have to change the pulley with turbos u can push buttons so....supercharger whine its really sexy and turbo's also sound amazing......im torn between both and i love them both but for the price of the turbos id have to go with them otherwise a nice kenne bell or whipple kit would be my choice

now that ur talking about turbos, what about the twin turbos that are sold on ebay what do u guys think ? they are much cheaper than a supercharger, but what else do u need this one here its suppose to be a BOLT ON.

ok ryderj's 92gt 3.73s are WAY to low go 3.27 maybe taller. what H/C/I are you running. what psi are you going to run. the 60mm will work fine but if you have aftermarket h/c/i i would go bigger like a 70mm. 76mm is a little big unless you have a stoker. and to who ever asked about the ebay turbo i have seen 3 build on theturboforums.com and all three say they are great. not bad quality just not as refined as others. but as far as power there there. you will need bigger injectors like 42lb a 255lph fuel pump ($99 off of ebay) an ajustable fuel pressure regulator( 74.99 off of ebay) wouldnt be a bad idea at all. depending on what kit you get i would also run an intercooler. the kits say the turbos are capable of 25psi but the wastgates are set at like 7-8? not sure. but that psi is fine for a 5.0. anyway i still vote for the turbo, its just better

I like Superchargers better, but then again I am not giving you an unbiased opinion

I have to say I had a supercharger on my '95 camaro and I loved it. However, since I've already done this I think I'm going with the twin turbo's now that I got my stang back. I've looked at the kits on ebay and I think everything would be fine with them except maybe the turbo's themselves. They look like some cheap thing made in a third world country. I think I would have to order the kit, sell the cheap looking turbo's and order up some Garrett's to put in their place haha. Just my thoughts.

93 white fox, sorry if I stepped on any toes, I wasn't meaning it can't be done. I was just saying that I don't know if I would trust the turbo's that you can buy on ebay. They are starting to sell so cheap that you wonder if they'll stand up. I know that turbo's need such precision in balancing to last that I would rather go with a more well known brand of turbo. I know that stainless steel is stainless steel so the that wasn't a concern. If you read my post I said that the whole kit would be fine but it was the turbo's that I was concerned with.

No problem Bro!I had a look at the previously mentioned kit.What it boils down to if you pay $1000 for a kit you will get $1000 worth of kit! I would rather spend the exstra cash and get a decent kit from a renowend company that has done ALL their R&D like the Pro turbo kit it look's better has thickker headder flanges tuned headders a decent turbo(garret/turboneticks/precission). High flow intercooler and decent piping.Turbo charging is a whole sience and if you want your Mustang to fly stick to Kits that has been tried and tested. Other wise you could en up with a whole lot of hassles!Trust me I have been there done that and my pocket has the scars to prove it!!!
Best regards





Sience

Well said.. i have allways loved turbos for a few reasons. one i love the sound that they make and the BOV. but when i built me new 2.3L turbo engin i pick the turbo over the supercharger B/C if you want to turn the PSI up on a turbo car all you have to due is change the spring. that is way better than changing some belts around or going out and buying completly new belts for it. so i say stick with the turbo make for one hell of a fun ride.

The turbo i got off ebay i love its a 63mm. and i have not had any problems form it. i did a lot of background work on form the guy i bought it off of. i checked his sell history to see how the ppl befor me like the product and there was only one bad review and that was due to shipping. so i still would stick to the turbo.
