Default SRT8 - Supercharger or Turbo?

Hello folks...
I'm sure my lack of energy in forum surfing will cause this question to possibly be a redundant one, but for the SRT8's has anyone installed either a Supercharger or a Turbo, and if so what types of gains are you getting?
Also is there any links in regards to either of these upgrades and how much would a fella expect to pay to get either done?
I have 22's on my SRT8 and I am getting quite dissapointed that I'm having some Mustangs and SRT4's run me off the line....kinda humiliating but I even had a supercharged COBALT keep up with me on the highway !

I love my car but I am starting to be a little disappointed with the hype of HP and the actual performance vs. other cars!

Any suggestions?

I have the K&N cold Air intake installed already as well as Magnaflow Catback system.

GS Motorsports has some nice SRT superchargers.

Squires Turbo Systems has turbo kits.

With the torque the SRT8 generates, and the RPM range it performs at, I'd go with the SC over the TC. TC works best at higher RPM and won't kick in til it builds pressure. SC will have immediate power, and will hold it through your powerband. As for being blown off by the Mustang and SRT4, a good 8 psi SC should get the 'Stang for ya, but with the engine and weight ratio the SRT4 may well outrun you continually. Especially if it's been modded and has a good driver in it.
