you can only have two of these^^

buy standard vts then put some cams in it thats my advise.

i never said cheep. so reliable and quick.

No, i want to be quicker than vts cam's. my m8 has a gti with 708's, raceland, bmc airflow, fse. i want to make him look slow with the same engine.

ok then, for a reliable boosted car you should budget 5grand for the engine,1k on brakes and suspension and then 1k on gearbox and clutch. then you would have a reliable car (depends on who mapped it) that should wipe the floor with your mates gti.

Is a supercharger not more reliable.

I was quoted £5500 for a turbocharger kit fitted which included quite a bit to make it run well.

If you do come across a turbo VTS get one thats got low comp pistons rather than a decomp plate.

Will be likely its a good kit and not just thrown together.
