Default Turbo Chargers

Any good turbo chargers on the market for an SC430?

Stupid question, but I had to ask.

I read somewhere some dude SC430 was pumping out like 390 or 460 hp. Which is insane.

It can eat like a BMW M3 or Mercedes Benz CLK55 or even a Aston Martin DB9. Most probably eat a Porsche Carrera, for breakfest, lunch and dinner.

If you're interested in a turbo on the SC, you would have to have it custom made like the ones above. Believe me, it's not a stupid question because I'm sure many of us have thought about force feeding our cars at some point.
Don't underestimate the DB9 or especially the AMG. As for the BMW and the Porsche, I'm sure you may be able to keep up, or they would be able to keep up, until the road begins to twist and turn. From that point, our SCs will begin to lose ground even with suspension work.
