I need some boost. But turbo or blower

Im looking at a couple kits right now. I was going to go turbo because I have had a couple turbo cars but I found a nice blower set-up. What are the benefits of the blower. Do prochargers have belts issues. Does the D1SC have a good reputation. How much would a blower rebuild cost. If anyone knows of complete kits turbo or blower please send me a pm or post them up.
I'd like to get a kit in the next week or two.
thanks

Depends what you want, I perfer turbo, but if you want something bolt on ready to go go super.

Turbo is more efficient, and you dont need to worry about belt slip or having to drop a pulley just to make more power.

Talk to Jon (realquick) he has some nice bolt on turbo kits, some fab work is required like moving the rad forward etc, but thats all easy

No worries

I have always been able to make kits where the radiator stayed in the stock location, but the kits out there now from past builds that require the radiators to be vertical were because the original buyer/orderer of the kit said he was going to move the radiator vertical anyway. This left me more room to lay the turbo out.
