Ever since I got the car I have wanted to put some sort of power adder on it. Since it is a daily driven convertible I will not be hitting the track, neither the drag nor the road course. (I have read that I would need at least a bar for even the road courses...)

So I am wondering what you use or would recommend for the corners? TS, turbo, or Centri?

I am kind of leaning TS for the low end torque, but I read so much good stuff about turbos...I should probably just enjoy what I have and leave the blower for all you "rich" folk, but maybe some day I'll have the cash to get it done.

Any thoughts?

You say you wont drag race or road race but then ask for a recommendation for corners. You mean for a DD with an occasional twisty track?

Yeah, there are a couple of nice twisty roads around...but yes it is true I should probably just stay NA and enjoy it...

First thing to consider here is that whatever direction you go you add a buttload of weight to the front end. That was the prime reason I relocated my battery and did the BMR k-member / a-arms. I'm figuring my Saleen TS added at least 100 pounds to the front end, probably more like 125. Other than that, I love the added pwer.

Doesn't look like much since the OE intake is so tall..but you're replacing a piece of molded plastic with a bigger hunk of aluminum with a steel and liquid filling...actually what are the rotors made out of anyway? I assumed steel but then corrosion would be a problem wouldn't it?
