of course, but we already have seen huge power from the turbo kits, even at this super early stage. if you're the type of person who is ok with a modest gain, with great response then SC is probably the best option. however, a lot of people have dyno sheet envy and will not stop until they have enough internet props that their e-**** is a mile long. for those guys, only a turbo will suffice.

mechawaza has point however that the turbo will make more low end torque at the cost of a little transient response or "lag."
generally turbos that have great tq down low, will not have as much up top. and if you're not going have a lot up top, why bother with a turbo?

centrifugial SC is a middle man, it gives great peak power but without the midrange of a twin-screw SC, and no lag like a turbo. :happy0180:
with the right setup, i can see a cent SC being the most popular choice...
