I would suggest a full exhaust system sway bars and coilovers.

If you just put in the turbo, you plainly gain horsepower, depends on how much horses you gain, then you still have to think about brakes so you can stop the car, tires so you can properly transfer the hp to the ground and exhaust so the extra air suck in have a way to get out, then clutch, maybe the final gear....

It's not just the cost of the turbo.

If you go for the latter option, you gain on handling directly, which you will enjoy it right away, with the exhaust system, you get a much better exhaust note and engine response. Which, if you are using the Z as your DD, you have enough horsepower PLUS you have a better ride.

With turbo, you have horsepower, but where can you actually use them..... going from one traffic light to the next one faster??

I would suggest the full exhaust system sway bars and coilovers.
