Depends on the driving you do and the performance you are willing to live with. For an around town car that doesn't see much highway use and if you can live with slower acceleration the non-turbo will do you fine. They are generally a little louder but are also easier to maintain/work on. If you drive mostly on the highway or with lots of stop-n-go traffic a turbo will keep up with traffic easier. It also depends on where you live. If you live at or near sea level with mostly flat terrain then the non-turbo will be adequate. If you live at higher altitudes, live or drive in the mountains often then the turbo will be a better candidate. It really depends on what you can live with. RT
