I think i want a turbo'd 4AGE.... however has anybody bothered turboing a 7AFE? would i be wasting my time going down that track? Is the engine strong enough? Whats does a turbo conversion usually cost (roughly)?

Oh yeah for sure. S'c is good for low down torque and have very little lag if any at all. So a bit better str8 off the line. Its why alot of the oldskool drag racing v8s like the superchargers...instant pull!

Go the super charger, ive had turbos in the past and found them laggy, instant torque and more smoother power curve with the S/C

Fortunately, "fat chicks" don't fit in my car. :D If they did though, the supercharger would definitely handle the increased workload. :P As for "living like a pimp"........Nice one, dude ! Bring on those skanky hoes I say ! :lol:
