Default Turbo question

Does anyone have experience with either the Turbonetics turbo or the Greddy turbo? I'm having a little trouble deciding which on to go with. I know more about Greddy, so I'm leaning that way. But I don't want to get it if Turbonetics is better.

get the greddy kit if you're pretty savvy on turbo setup. the greddy kit gives you more room for customization. Get the turbonetic kit if you want a complete bolt on kit.

I vote for Turbonetics.

IMO you get what you pay for.

the selling point for me (if i end up going turbo) is the 1 year "no questions asked" warranty that Turbonetics offer...no matter what happens...if you destroy your turbo in the first year, they will replace it for free! Pretty good customer relations if you ask me.

Only 12,000 miles/1 year warranty. I'll probably drive my car more than 12,000 miles in a year. Then it'll break at like 12,001 miles. LOL. I've been looking more into both of them. I'm kinda swaying towards the Turbonetics. I can't find all that much on Greddy anymore. Would anyone know where to find more on the Greddy? Like the PSI and stuff like that?
