Turbo or Supercharger?
 

I was looking at the jackson racing supercharger and the fbm stage 1 premium turbo, and was wondering which would be better for mainly street use and mild track/autocross use. I would also like to keep in mind the durability of the tentative engine setup and which would be better in that regard.

Which one has an upgrade path?

+1 for Full Blown. Is there a reason you want to opt for the premium instead of the base kit?

Uh, thought it might be a good balance in between the base and the stage 2? What are your thoughts?

The housing is different on the premium kit, and it's tig-welded. I'm personally going with the base kit w/ the upgraded GTX turbo.

Running the FBM kit and it is awesome on the street and mountain passes. If you want to track it hard, then bank on some cooling upgrades to go along with it.

What is the difference with the upgraded turbo in the Full Blown kit?

Stage 1 base kit uses T3-T4 flanges and comes with a journal bearing GT28 oil cooled turbo. Upgrade GTX2867r turbo is both water and oil cooled and the turbo is BB turbo.

If you upgrade to the Premium kit you get handmade, thicker, better material header, and V-band clamps as well.

Oh cool. One of these threads again.

Kraftwerks of course ;)

FBM FTW!

Turbo > super

Is there a way to code in an auto thread delete if the words turbo and supercharger are used in the same sentence?
