Well said.

But yeah, theres tons and tons and tons of info in the Forced Induction section, and the forum in general. Lots of boosted fellas on this site.

Like the other guys have said.

Search, research, search some more and research, and take it to the next level.

I WISH!!!

Going to let this continue for just a bit, but OP, I will give you a few pointers:

1. Having your first post on the site start a thread in F/I with a question that has been asked a million times is not a great way to start.

2. Around here we talk in terms of whp, not bhp... then we argue over whose dyno reads lowest

3. When your list of mods is wheels and a TV, then F/I you are asking to be flamed. Read the F/I for noobs sticky and the MANY build threads from members with various kits and you will find the answers you seek.

"500BHP to the wheels" has to be the dumbest $hit Ive read in a few months.

OP put a TV in your car, and try to impress your girl...or boy...whatever you're into one day and call it a day. It will be much cheaper than trying to get into something you don't have the mental capacity to handle.

do you even know what driving a car with 500hp is like? If your first mods were as listed, and you go for 500bhp "to the wheels" youre on the right track to making out with the first tree you meet.
