Most people getting the stroker want more power. It will never provide as much power as the supercharger yet at a much higher cost. When resale is factored in the cost differential is even greater.

There is nothing wrong with the stroker, it does what it is supposed to do. However, if this is a street car, the supercharger makes a lot more practical sense. If money is no object, build the motor and add boost.

The question is not difficult for me as 12k vs. 35k is pretty simple when the cheaper option provides far more power with room to grow.

Well said, we've seen what a Gpower'd M3 does against a strong DCT bolt on m3, you, I or another strong bolt on M3, need to run a stroker so the folks can see the difference.

Is this on a stock block ?? 200hp+ on a stock na engine seems a little on the edge.

200+ hp on a stock NA engine depends on the engine.

Yes, stock block.

Hmmm....the thought of that kit with a smaller pulley on a DCT car is very tempting...
