would you turbo or super charge your BRZ/FRS?

assuming you have bought the NA car, and in two years Subaru comes out with the turbo and Toyota has the Supercharger. Would you buy the turbo kit and install it or the super charger? and why?

If I had to choose, supercharger. I probably won't do either though.

I prefer the whine of a supercharger, so I would go that route.

If I had a $1 for every one of these threads I could buy a turbo kit...

I got an awesome idea... why don't you start a poll... and put in the right sections.

Oh cause that has already been done several 100 times already...

Hey champ go to here http://www.ft86club.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=78 and see all the turbo kits and super charger kits...
