If you think "boost" is different than "turbo" or "supercharge", you need to do a LOT of research and decide on your own what you want. They both have their positives and negatives, and only you can decide what you want.

moved to forced induction, as far as I'm concerned there's never any reason to run a supercharger on a 4 cylinder over a turbo.

I have to say lately I've been somewhat interested in seeing how practical it would be to do a "dual" set up: a supercharger for the bottom end and a turbo to finish out the top end. But that doesn't answer your question. Which I don't really think your going get the answers you wanted. Do some reading/research and eventually you'll be able to answer it yourself.

why would you do that when a properly sized turbocharger, engine, and cam combo will do the job. in my opinion the speed that a honda builds RPM a person should not need a turbo spooling earlier than 3000rpm, so a decently sized turbo will outperform a twin charge setup in my opinion.
