Ok..I give up...wtf is so important about IC's previous thread? The info given here is accutare and informative. Unlike the two given by you here Ken. I re-read Georges original post and I see nothing about "Anyone have infomation on IC's last post".

FWIW, i would like to add a little to IC's explanation. Whereas the s/c kits are usually a turn key op using a "fixed size" system, a turbo has to be evaluated by the design, efficiency and reguard the turbo placement/size/boost map/intercooler/routing. Although the jury is still out on the rear placed turbo kits, a well designed kit will be more beneficial than the roots/centrifical/lycolm/ supercharger kit.

Either way, avoid at all costs any non-intercooled kit. And in my opinion the boxed tune sent with any kit should be the "Drive to the tuners shop" tune. Have your local hi-po tuner redo the tune on a dyno with a wideband o2 sensor for a/f ratio monitoring and adjustment.

Having worked on and driven both types of induction in like type vehicles (not H2) I believe that a turbo kit is the way to go and where im putting my cash. But, we are not talking about any major difference in performance because the 6.0L engine can only take so much boost/HP before the block becomes a sieve.

***NEWSFLASH** Some one posted 2 Whipples for sale at a kick ass price. This alone could turn the deciding factor to the blower kits.
