It's turbo time for me, folks.
A guy on another forum was advertising a 'massive turbo blowout, smoking deals you can't pass up!' So I figure, ok buddy, lets see what you got and sent him a PM with my particulars and wait to see what he suggests.
"Oh, you need the S476r with a race cover and a billet wheel. That'll get you where you want to go, and fast!"

For the low, low, low price of well north of $1500.00 shipped to my door.
While I'd love to shell out the cash and make enough power to send a rhinoceros into a low orbit, it simply isn't in the budget. They make a turbo that'll put enough thump into the truck motor to make an easy 700 whp for H.A.L.F. the price of this billet masterpiece he's trying to win me over with.
So... do I put the car on hold so I can say, "yeah, it's the billet one" while I pry my eyeballs off the back of my skull or do I take the reasonable approach and be happy with enough power to at least lift 1 front tire off a prepped surface?
(Cliff notes - Do I buy a more expensive unit for a little more power or settle for the reasonably priced one)
