Besides the extra power there are some "unwanted extras" that comes with it I.E. extra heat (plenty of it), extra stress, extra pressure (either positive or negative), extra wear and tear, frequent and more periodic inspections, extra care on other areas and the list goes on and on. The main difference as to be "worry/maintenance free" which is a lie, is the type of system is installed. Is it an e-bay kit installed in your garage or is it a well know and reputable company doing the engine build and taking in consideration most of the possible "can go wrong" aspects into the equation. I hear young kids talking so much about "x amount of boost" and they think that is all needed to know. Boost amounts is actually irrelevant, for example; 8 or 9 lbs of boost in a well build engine can outperform an e-bay quick install kit that is "rated" at making 15 lbs of boost. Do your homework, don't be afraid of asking questions and you will see what most of us are saying here. By no means, I'm discouraging you from going force induction, (force induction is as addictive as sex) but the issue is not as simple as "install and forget".
