Superchargers make instant power and create more low end power and stay constant through the RPMS
Turbochargers take time to spool but can create higher amounts of power at higher RPMS
so it really depends on what your looking for

Remember with out forged internals the most your going to run is going to be 6PSI which should get you a extra 100 HP BUT one wrong lean condition BYE BYE the top of the stock pistons are VERY VERY thin and do not hold up to boost and heat, Trust me I know ha ha Now im running a completly forged combo with crank rods and pistons and Plan to run 15PSI, something else to consider turbos and supercharger are very tempting to add more boost after all its just a pulley swap away or a spring swap in the wastgate. also every PSI is good for about 25 HP
