Do both. High low end torque, and good upper end power!

If you can you should list the depth of your pocketbook, your goals, and than we could probably better help you.

As far as I know from reading here, turbocharging is the "best" way too go!

turbo will give you more power... if you want to do it simple and get pretty good power is supercharged, but turbo is much better, but it all depends on how much money you got and willing to drop

if you want just a little more power (50-60 hp) and not sacrafice any of the drivibility then supercharge.

if you want more power and are willing to loose just a little driveability then turbo that thing.

I just got finished turbocharging my 4th gen. I love it. I got a t3 turbo so it spools up at like 2500 rpm. lol. So don't go saying turbo's can't produce low end power. BTW I did the complete build for a little under 2k.

you really have to ask yourself some questions first.

1. what is your power goal?
2. is this car daily driven/only vehicle I have
3. are you willing to give up the ATTS
4. How much money do I have to spend

If you answer these we can help you decide which would be better for YOU.
