You've created a post, asking for thoughts on your idea, expecting everyone to applaud you for your idea and tell you it's great, but we've advised against it... Now you've decided you don't like it and started telling us how great it is to mod on a budget as if we don't do that...
Reality is, a hybrid will cost you more money than doing it yourself, worse performance than simply installing a better unit and IME likely to be less reliable... I've had at least a modicum of experience when it comes to choosing a turbocharger, if you don't want to take my advice, that's fine, but don't just tell me how I'm wrong and I obviously just throw money at cars... At least have a decent debate with why you think it's a better option. Had you have done your research, I'm sure you'd understand all about how and why the valvetrain causes problems in these engines as soon as you up the power levels and why hybridising is not the best way.
If you want to go ahead, great, I'm sure you'll tell us how we're all wrong in the future

Quote:Done more than enough research, know what to go for if i do go for a bigger turbo. Hybrid just seems a cheaper option for more po wer.
