Default turbo or supercharger?????

I plan on going F/I with in the next couple of years. Wich one " turbo or supercharger" will be more maintenance. I want more power but don't want to always worry about problems. and to let you know this is future plans, I dont even have my z yet. Will be getting it this tuesday or wednesday hopefully! It's been about 3 months since I have been waiting to get it from this guy on autotrader. So please tell me your opinions, and why. I have been doing research on both, but not really sure cuz the F/I is all new to me, and would like to know the opinons of the know it alls here lol, so please no hating towards me if I sound like a newb. Btw, I am leaning toward the side of the supercharger cuz of the price, and I will be satisfied by the power of any. Thanks

You have to get a Z before you ask modding question. Then you have to have at least $15K disposable income before you can ask about FI, ok?

You don't have to search, there is a whole section. Go to the main forum page and scroll down. Click on the FI section and start reading. I think you are more retarded than lazy.

Then my next question to you is how do you know if the Borla exhaust is a "TRUE" dual if you don't even have it yet to check. HMMMMMMMMMM???????

Well the guy I am getting it from, when I went to test drive it he told me every thing he had done to it. And he told me that the exhaust was true, uless he was lieing to me.

OMG You have to check these things for yourself. You don't just trust anyone with verifying the trueness of your exhaust's duality. Ask him if the car is JDM.
