Question Turbo or S/C???

Ok i have been debating on wether to get a Twin Turbo Charger system or a S/C i know turbos supposedly give more hp but S/C's give quicker torque and reasonable hp gains if you have a H/C/I system on your car im not ready to do one of these yet im just planing ahead so i dont make a bad choice and basicaly screw my car to death any help would be great and if any one knows where to find a twin turbo system for a 2004 3.9liter V6 let me know cause i cant find one so i might have to go the custom route which would be interesting but leaves a more oportune chance of screwing my car up :-\ well get back to me on this if you know and on your opiinions thanks

Hey Austin, I believe ks had a good reply just down below for the guy with the 2000 Mustang. It was just asked last week. Custom would be a large undertaking with twins.....

I would definately go turbocharged. Assuming that you get a good turbo match, you will make MORE power than any supercharger. A Supercharger will put a parasitic power loss/and strain on your crankshaft, while a turbocharger will use exhaust for propulsion to propel the turbine. TMATURBO.com has some good clips to show how they perfected turbo technology.

I would love a kit like this on my 70 fastback (Tma specializes in 94-04 v6 mustangs) but I've considered asking them to build a custom setup for my v8.

they are expensive as hell to buy from, and their headers are welded cheap. Your best bet would be to buy a set of headers and run them opposite (passenger and driver switched) to direct the exhaust forwards then design your own system. It can be done, just takes alot of thinking and planning.

PS TMA Headers are $800 for the headers only

Procharger or Rotrex superchargers would be my preference.
