A turbo is the safest way to make big power since you dont have to worry about slipping blower belts, broken cranks/keyways, brutal WOT hits, pulleys vs eboost2, ect

Hey thanks for giving some insight to my question among this sea of my turbo is better than your supercharger posts. I didn't think that was what this thread was about.
That is a good point. It's just interesting to me to think that maybe a stock motor could take this much extra power being rammed down it's throat.
