Default supercharged ls civic?

Was wanting to do a new motor setup for an ls
I was just curious though,
Would an ls be any good supercharged?
My original plan was to just boost the ls but I just wanted to see if anyone
Knows of an ls making good numbers being supercharged?

Ls with a b16/type r head will make excellent power. The ls has a nice long stroke. Will tell you exactly how much in a few weeks. Just rebuilt my b16b with LS crank and rods with b18c5 pistons, stock ctr head with JRSC running about 11psi. Tuner has had a similar setup put down 270-280 hp

If you already have the supercharging setup then sure but if not then why not go with a turbo setup that's much more efficient?

True a turbo would yield more power with a lot less psi. But I prefer superchargers, don't know why just do lol.

Haha yeah I mean I wanted to boost the ls
But I Just wanted to do something I haven't seen out here..
I understand that with a good turbo setup I would probably make more power. .
But supercharging is somethinf I wanna try haha just to try it

Are they reliable tho? Or would they be about the same as a turbo?
