Default turbo

i was thinking about turbo'ing the gs3 and just looking into a few options.

first i read a few threads and saw a few people doing the aristo swaps from japan. now how much do these swaps go for and what are some good companies to get it them from.

second i was thinking about just turbo'ing the stock 2j in it now. also how do the stock motors hold up compared to the turbo one from japan?

i'm looking for which one will be cheaper and i'm going to do this swap right, not. opinions will be nice and please don't flame me too much. lol

do the swap. it will cost you the same amount of money either way. ($5k-7k was the mutually agreed upon number. . . )

the swap is more reliable and has more headroom when you need more power.

oh, and search is your friend as this topic has been beaten to death. . . . .
