Straight story please....

How good can an N/A '91 900 5spd get while still being reasonably civilized for street use? I love a good turbo car as much as anybody, but the way a well massaged N/A delivers power just gets to me. It's more easily managed, and therefore a bit more usable in less than ideal conditions. Also, when driving an N/A car, I get the feeling I'm really driving something, like the car and I are working together. Big boost, can make me feel like I'm just strapping myself to a rocket and lighting the fuse. I know motorsports driving technique, and have no trouble controlling a hi-po turbo car, so a lack of confidence is ruled out as reason for any preference. They're just two different breeds of steed, and I can't help but wonder what an N/A tuning project could possibly yield.
Oinions? Your results?
In this equation, it is given that the car has recieved traditional chassis mods and supension tuning.
