Lakers ftw. That's pretty much the only bball team I kinda know, since they're local.

I'm probably the only non-sports fan here.

I want something that is as close as possible to oem reliability, which in my opinion is the HKS. I used to work in the industry and have been around a lot of forced induction systems for the VQ, and for my needs (daily driver, not tracked, oem reliability, about 80-100 more whp, C.A.R.B EO) the HKS is perfect for me.

Glad to hear so many others are going to make it out!

Yep, exactly. We're bandwagon fans.

+1. I'd go the HKS route too for the same reasons. I want to keep my car a solid, reliable daily driver. The only thing I'd change is the intercooler. It's so tiny.

So why would you guys choose HKS over Vortech?

I don't really want turbo & I don't like the roots style SC


I'm now debating on these two..

i would choose HKS because it is a reliable brand and it is quality. but i then at the same time i would choose the Vortech because it gives you more horse power and it can be used for a daily driven car.

One of the things that scares me is when you get it installed...

I thought I could do the install.. Lol but then there's the tunning part... Do they come pre tuned?

splicing is easy, finding the correct wires should be the worry.
