MOTOR or FI
I am a confused indivisual who HAS to rip his car apart this winter to keep his mind sane. I was decided on a head/cam setup + a shot (rare occasisions). BUT, BOOST keeps calling my name. My old car was a 01 cobra with a procharger d1sc which I really did love. Top end pull rush is great! I dont want to go s/c this time around as I know turbos are more efficient. More money yes, but better. Just want to do it right the first time. APS kit looks very promising and with a install myself and a buddy I possibly could afford it. Pushing the wallet hard though! 
So I want to see how you guys feel. What would you be driving around a aggressive yet streetbale h/c/i setup + a small 100 shot
or
APS ZO6 TT.
Cost wise baiscally 4-5k compared to 9k tuned with fuel system installed yourself.
Crazy comparision I know, but Im a crazy guy!
Thanks

I guess it depends how power hungry you are. If you’re going to install the APS kit on your stock motor then I think you will end up about the same place power wise as the H/C + 100 shot. 575rwhp? That’s a really tough call which way to go.
I’ve had a great running H/C setup on my car for over two years and have had ZERO issues. It’s been absolutely great! I am thinking about changing to the APS system only because I want a lot more power. I worry about the reliability of TT systems as opposed to H/C or H/C and NOS.
If “all” you want is 575rwhp or so I would go with the H/C +100 shot. If you want 600+rwhp (which you probably will at some point, I know I do) save a few extra bucks and build a forged motor to go with the APS system.
