That might be a good choice. But you are adding weight and a heat soaker for not that much payback. But if you can live with that HP and the drawbacks it sounds reasonable to me. It's when you start going bigger it gets ugly. I started my turbos at 4 lbs. Then moved to 6, then 10 (around 625rwhp) where the trouble started and was thinking 14 right before I ended up with a ZL1.

Turbos are much easier on a car than a PD blower.
