Default Supercharger or Turbocharger?

Not sure if this is in the archived files yet... just wondering what your guys "updated" input would be on this? This winter I'm lookin to forced induction... I dunno weather or not to go with the jackson racing supercharger or like a drag stage 3 turbo kit... I know the motor already comes with high compression... but what do you guys think would be the best for effectiveness... input VERY WELCOME

Depends on what kind of power you are going to attempt to make.....in my opinion if you want to go FI and your willing to dish out the $$ then i would go turbo! Although, there are a couple users on the boards making very nice whp with the SC'd motors. Do some reading...there is more then enough in here

if you are one of those hardcore bench racing peak hp hoes, go turbo

for usable power on the track, sc or turbo will do fine.
