turbo is better bang for you buck...and sounds much cooler...haha....but if you want a warranty, go with the trd supercharger...if you want tuneable performance and potential for huge numbers, or a fast daily driver i would go turbo...contrary to popular belief, there isn't that much maintenance unless you do the install wrongly or you beat the hell out of it everyday for the turbo....supercharger, i hear a lot of stories for broken brackets, and people on there 3rd or 4th supercharger....but then again, there are just as many turbo stories....your call....but i would go turbo...which i did

i dont dog on my turbo and the maintenance is low, i do recommend getting a beater prior though, there sometimes is downtime with turbos. specially if you like tinkering with them like me. new items coming hmm.
