Cool 3.0Si exhaust & turbo or super??

I'm having difficulty finding sound clips for 3.0Si exhaust mods. Anyone know where I can find some (other than youtube). Anyone have any suggestions on what kind?

Also, my friend thinks I should supercharge it, but I was considering turbo... any ideas?

Thanks

Is the magnesium and aluminum block in the Si going to be as strong and durable as the cast iron M block? Any difference in boost level tolerance? Questions from an FI Dummy.

If I were you, I wouldn't supercharge or turbo it. Use that money and find yourself a used M coupe or roadster. You'll be much happier and you'll get a lot more than just a hp increase. You'll get the brakes, suspension, etc...

I was seriously thinking M. Had a really good looking one lined up too, but then I looked further into the E89... the tt version has a 0-60 of 5.0 with the new DCT found on the M3, as well as EDC functions, the new iDrive, and a much improved interior (though I like mine in the E85). Should we all just upgrade instead!?
