Does it run? any pics? What did you get the turbos off of?

700 hp is a piece of cake and with correctly sized turbo there is not more lag than with a procharger.

They've both got their places, I've got nothing against Prochargers, and would love to have one someday..
The price difference between the two can be substantial though. Considering you need to think about the cost of your headers on top of a Procharger kit, its pretty easy to have well over $6 grand in an F2 kit and good headers. Many times you can save a couple grand on a turbo kit with a comparable rated turbo, as the headunits are a fair amount cheaper.
PS. A Borg Warner S400(75mm)is basically PERFECT for your goals. They are around $600 bucks, will support over 1000 horse, but they are very happy in the 6-700 range on low boost. The 1.32 housing would be great on the 440 as well.

Really depends on your fab skills and amount of time you want to put into it. In that category the supercharger wins. Bolt it together and go instead of custom welding your own turbo headers and piping the exhaust in. Sounds like it will be a very fun ride as long as you have the skills needed and can swing the time to do it.

True and not. People like me will happily fab the kit for you. Not many people "fab" a procharger kit either, they order one with everything already one in a kit. The original poster wasn't questioning which way to go, his SN is prochargedhemi, but he says he wants to do a basic turbo setup, so obviously he's willing to tackle the fab, or has someone to do it for him.
