Greddy Kit vs Turbo Specialties

I own a 2007 SI Sedan

What kit offers more reliability? I'm looking for an easy and reliable way to achieve 270-290whp.. And... are there any superchargers in that price range?

Also, Im getting a Skunk 2 Mega Power Exhaust and it comes with a silencer.. Does the silencer affect its performance when its in versus when its not in? I want to keep things down a bit..

Thanks...

Easy answer as far as your main question. Answer : Greddy.

Why? Because as far as I know Turbo Specialties are not even being sold right now due to fuel tuning issues.

I am also interested in the Comptech supercharger. The Greddy Turbo kit and the Comptech Supercharger put out about the same power am I correct?

The good thing about the Comptech is that some Honda Dealerships wont void your warrenty for it (it varies so i'd ask around).

The bad thing is that they're on backorder.

I agree w/ losorio, TS has poor fuel management, I had an extreme kit in a 99 Miata and it sucked big time...I ripped out the entire system and went w/ a stand alone...also TS uses cheap parts....Greddy is the bomb!
