Supercharger or Turbo
Just a question that has been lingering, Im trying to figure wich would be less expensive, It seems to me a supercharger would be the way to go (and easy in comparason) but im really not sure.

Supercharger would be the cheaper and easier route if you can find a GM kit for sale either new or used. Turbo would be a little harder and more expensive, but would get you more power.
And with that said...turbos are way better

To answer your question, the MP45 supercharger kit.
Then if you want, you can add a turbocharger to it later and be twincharged!  Whine, spooling whistle, blow-off valve... ahh. |
