I wouldn't consider a turbo "peaky". Now a centrifgal blower, that's peaky. My Cartech single turbo kit made full boost around 3200 rpm. Now that's not as low as the Kenne Bell, but it's not bad at all. And boost started coming in @ around 2200. The Cartech kit comes with heat protection hardware. And I never burned a plug wire. The turbo side plugs were not that bad to get to either. Certainly the Kenne Bell is easier to maintain, but a single turbo kit isn't that bad either. I had a friend that had 2 Kenne Bell's. He said the discharge temps were too high and they would never make the power that he would eventually want. My point is, you say you want 10% race. I said that in the beginning too. But I knew that someday I may want more. That's why I went with a turbo. And it was plenty of joy on the street too
