Remember that although spending 5 grand on a blower will increase your power and performance in this car, you'll also be spending another 5 to 6 grand to achieve all the power that the blower can give you.

First of all, what's your budget? second, what is your horsepower goals? Are you going to use it as DD, track, etc?

Also hows the condition of the motor? is it babied? or abused like a raped ape?

I suggest that you freshen up on the motor, get a compression and leak down test. So that you know your motor will hold up to your FI setup. Then you can figure out which route to go. Remember, a turbo has more potential in high HP gains, compared to an sc. Turbo's can vary in size from small to big, depending on your HP goals. With an sc, its only one size I think, someone correct me if I'm wrong, and your very limited on hp gains, due to the pulley sizes.

And you also need to have it tuned and dyno'd. So you know how much whp your car is producing. Go with a standalone ems, best way to tune any FI/SC setup. Without a good tune, your definitely sacrificing reliability and longevity of your motor and car, when it's boosted.
