Question Build my own turbo kit, or go all-motor...?

It's a daily driver car... both ways I can reach my 400hp goal... building a remote mounted turbo installation could be cheaper and easier than installing heads & cam... 6-7psi at the most...what do you guys recommend? my car is almost stock... I just got a Supertube delivered and what's in my sig... 64k miles

Thats great till the motor pops on the turbo, you could easily hit your 400HP goal, with a real basic 355, it would be plenty daily driveable and take a small shot of gas reliably.
