My budget is around $6000 maybe a bit higher with the install. I really dont want to wait 5 years for the warrenty to expire because by that time im probably going to be buying an SUV anyways for the family. I want somethimg that does not require a lot of supporting mods. Just exhaust and intake but thats about it.
Thanks again for the input.

If you go with the vortech kit, you are fine with the stock clutch etc.
It does not put loads of torque out, so you don't have to worry about breaking things. If you decide you want to go a bit faster, fuelpump/injectors and E85 can put you into ~300whp if not more, and a quick pulley swap would just add more power.
The only thing you need to worry about is the drive belt. Run a quality drive belt, and check for wear every oil change along with checking the supercharger fluid levels.
Turbo will give you more power for less, but the engine with a supercharger just feels like you stock engine but.... more. Not overwhelming or kick in your pants torque, but just that extra bit to make it really fun at high rpm
