^ I wouldn't say "arguably". In my experience, both personal and second hand, turbo systems will require almost constant attention. You have to watch boost, temps, AFR's not to mention mechanical failures, bolts working loose, gasket leaks, manifold cracks, and coked bearings. Turbo's are leaps and bounds better than they were 15 years ago; however, there are still many more parts and variables involved in a turbo setup than a typical supercharged setup. I loved my turbo IS300 and I loved my Garrett Upgraded MazdaSpeed 6 but for this car I wan to give supercharging a shot. The obvious benefits of low end torque, ease of installation, system simplicity, and a warranty that Stillen hopes to offer make it an easy choice.
