    Gen 5 = $300

    TVS = probably way more then $300 plus the cost to get it to work, if it would work


    Hardly comparable.. apples to oranges

    I was looking at trying to replicate snowflake's TVS install on my regal. Then i found a turbo and just went that way. If you look around, you can find a decent turbo "kit" cheaper than a vendor.

    it would have taken the same effort to bolt a TVS as it is to bolt up a Mp112.

    If you can make custom adapter plates and such, plus the cost of the blower, then sure. Other wise GenV
