Nice shots and cool vid

But i still like the noise of the super charger over the turbo

You haven't heard the turbo in a tunnel at full throttle in 3rd gear

I agree on that but, the new found power compensates for the missing S/C whine and the LOUD BOV is the icing on that cake. The mic is in the the small trunk under the bonnet so the BOV appears to be a lot quieter that what it really is.

Kempo, with your turbo conversion have you dynoed your car to see how much HP you have?
Can you feel a big difference on track?
Is there any turbo lag?
cheers

I have three settings. Boost controller off 12PSI=260whp low boost setting 16PSI=300whp and 22PSI=350whp. The difference in the track is as big as night to day. Turbo lag at the track is non existent. With Hahn's S20g turbo I have 20PSI of boost at about 3700-3800 RPMs.

Sounds like a great setup.
Did you beef up any of the engine internals or just switch out the supercharger for a turbo?
