Continue with SC or go Turbo?

Right now i have:
2006 GT
1.9 Rockers
Headers
open cone
180 t-stat
3.4 pulley
Custom tune
colder plugs

There is no knock and runs good now my question is should i add:
Full size IC
3 inch exhaust
3.25 pulley
60 injectors

or do i go with Z7 turbo:
Plog
1.9 rockers
3 inch exhaust
60 injectors
and the other supporting mods

What will be overall more fun and a safer setup both will have a built tranny. Thanks for any input!
 


basically its a DD, and i want to be able to have the speed there. Consistent 12's would be nice. As far as the tranny goes its all ready to go just need to put it in!
 


Turbos can make stupid amounts of power and still be a good dd. When you hit 12's you will be breaking stuff alot.
 
Turbos are great for a car your going to race all the time, and can make insane amounts of powah, but for a dd i would stay sc...when you ic and pulley down that will be your fix for a while anyway lol..plus there's nothing like that whine
 
no cam? id stay with sc
and you should be able to go a bit lower pulley with a full size ic, like a 3.0
 


Hahah, ya right now I have a 2000 turboed that does not run proper. Then I have a 2006 SC with the mods listed.
So if it was going to be worth the turbo I was going to build the 2006 properly with the supporting mods and go from there. But if I'm sticking with the SC ill throw the IC on it and drop the pulley then sell the turbo. No need for 2 of em lol
 


ok, well the tranny i have will more then likely hold up. Its built decently. Then i will get stage 2 axles, and half shafts?

As far as the Turbo or SC goes. It is pretty easy to throw an IC on there and drop to a 3-3.25 pulley but will that get me into 12's? I dont need a car where im constantly having to put more money into because things are breaking and what not so the insane amount of power from the turbo isnt going to be used.
