Default Turbo or Super on my '02 SI - Least engine wear?

I dont want to drag my car, but I would like some X-tra power, without killing my engine. I LOVE BOOST but im not sure if a NA engine is equipped to properly handle Forced Induction and still roll me about 100k+ miles on the engine. Im looking for "Real-Life" experience with both and how long the engine "may" last with Forced Induction.....

P.S. I'm still a newbie at this stuff.... what the heck kind of engine to I have, I keep hearing B-this and D-that....

Thanks!

You have a K20A3, remember that for the future.
I have heard about the turbo kit for the rsx, i dont know if it is available yet, but you can probably have a shop modify the pipes for you. I dont think a superchargers exist for the K series motors yet.
