It's 6 one, 1/2 dozen another. I'd go with which ever one happens to be a better deal for you. They both force air into the engine - period. Neither one is more condusive to water/meth, propane, intercoolers, etc. And a turbo isn't going to do anything to change your shift points, the TPS does that based on throttle input (your foot), and the TPS is adjustable. What a turbo will do, is give you more power and your truck may not need to downshift whereas is may have needed to prior to having a turbo during certain situations (towing, long hills, etc.). I bought my truck used with an ATS turbo already on it and it runs pretty strong. Hypermax is another turbo that is cheaper than both of them. Ford used ATS's design for their factory turbo trucks starting in 1993.
