Default Torque Twister Turbo Experience?

Ok so i was looking for tubros and or superchargers and i think i have decided to go with a turbo. Now the decision is between the pipeline and the torque twister... The torque twister has better numbers on paper and is a tiny bit cheaper. My goal for my v6 is at least 400 hp and 420+ ft lbs of torque. So i said all that to say this... has anyone used the torque twister? and if so will you please tell me if it is 1)dependable 2) does it deliver the power it says. Thanks ahead of time to anyone who may help.

I've never heard of it. That alone would make me steer clear. But hey, maybe someone on the site has one. But until someone speaks up about it, I'd wait. I wouldn't wanna be the guinea pig on something like that. But that's just me.

just remember , going with a turbo you'll have to have a custom tune , custom header , and custom piping. A supercharger is more reliable too , as they are more widely avaliable and tuning can be done via handheld tuner for it

yes i have a 2008 v6. I have seen arguments for and against both and based just on the power i like this turbo. But... then again i don't want to be the first one and it blow my engine or something.

do us a favor and if you do decide to go with the turbo , give the mustang community a step by step on what parts your using and how your installing them with pictures.
