Right now I have a partial junkyard set up, not in my car seeing as to how it?s partial. I have a turbo out of a merkur, an intercooler that I got out of an eclipse that I am trying to fit into my fender:/ this is a good way to go if you are on a budget, or just have nothing else to do.

If you race turbo..
If you just want more pep supercharge it.

If you want 300 whp as a daily driver, you're gonna need to build the block. But 300whp can be easily achieved with a t3/t04 turbo. Don't bother with a Jackson Racing SC on an LS, they don't make much power.

JRSC dont make that much power and the ratio on cost/hp is just a joke.
get a full kit, if your go with a junkyard kit you may run into problems that you could not fix, and then you'd be SOL |

it depends on if you want power or reliability s/c are better if you're looking for reliability and it to be a daily driver. If you want power then turbo. I'm not saying turbo cars aren't reliable just more problems can come with them
