Opinions wanted: A&A V3 vs Hinson Single kit
I have been gathering parts here and there to put together what is essentially an A&A V3 setup minus a few silicone couplers and using a 3.4 pulley. Or I have a chance to acquire a used hinson single turbo setup.
I'm basically just going to keep the power levels modest, what ever they would make out the box, is it on E85. Not looking for that baddest HP car on the block, those days are way behind me. Low maintenance is what I'm after!! I have never owned a S/C'ed car or ridden in one so not sure how they respond, I came from the DSM world so I can relate to turbo's somewhat just not on a V8... what size turbo could I get on the hinson kit anyways? So between these two power adders what would you choose and why? Thanks for your time. |

Good luck. |
The turbo wil smell like oil, be more complex to install, and bake a lot of under hood components. |
A&A hands down. I've had both setups and the Hinson setup is anything but bolt on and go but it won't smell like oil....

I vote a&a too for simplicity and less maintenance especially since you aren't going for max effort

as in welding is needed or structure changes to the car...

I've had the hinson, I do prefer the turbo powerband vs centrifugal. but it's not bolt on. you'll need to modify things and get creative.
So this will come down to how simple you want your life to be. the pros and cons to each |
