Default Turbo vs. Supercharger

Looking for some opinions on turbos vs. superchargers. Other than headrers and some high flow cats, I think thats my next upgrade. I've heard different pros and cons go either way. Just trying to see what you guys think.

I guess my goal is just faster and more efficient without hurting anything. Not really looking more massive results, just a little more when i want it

You could bolt on a TVS1900 and be done.. or a KBracing/Trick Turbo setup and still have fun..

I vote Turbo

You mentioned efficiency... turbo for sure! lol. you can have a blast with a turbo and a smaller setup can spool fast enough if you are worried about instant power. or you can enjoy getting pushed back in the seat as it just keeps pulling all the way through
