Turbo questions Greddy vs. turblown

I really hope to god I dont get flamed for this one but I have a few questions.
1st After much searching I havent found much on an actual comparison of the turblown turbo system and the greddy. I know the turblown makes two different style turbo kits and to my knowledge Greddy makes one, but what company has the better out of the box type of quality?
2nd I know that many people suggest adding a bov to the Greddy kit but I thaught the waste gate was internal. How would I if I chose that kit remove the stock wastgate for the bov and would that then be a weld on aplication?
Thanks for any help or knowledge you pass on.

Turdblown = ****. If you actually researched, you would know this

You don't replace a wastegate with a bov, they do completely different things.

Do some more research

Nobody, 98% of boosted 8's are hybrid kits.

Poppin' you need some education and no one here is going to spoon feed you. I suggest you read Corky bell's book on turbocharging and the book "Street Rotary". And then start reading the numerous threads on turbocharging here, including the Turdblown low mount thread.
