That's true, but the the VR has the better reliability because it was designed from the ground up with forced induction in mind. Not saying the VQ isn't reliable, you're just taking a bigger risk and likely decreasing overall engine life by going FI.

The Juke R looks sweet! It looks like they've completed the conversion but they haven't put out any videos of its performance...I can't wait to see how it does.
