I would suggest that you stay away from any form of forced induction, for the time being.

First off, adding a supercharger (and the necessary tune) would definitely get you any power train warranty work denied.

FI starts your engine down a slippery slope as far as reliability, unless you know how to handle it and work with it.

So, ask yourself ...... where is 50% more HP going to get you any faster on the streets and highways in Florida ..... ??

You may find that, for spirited driving, once your car gets broke in and you get to know it and how to drive it ...... it just may have all the power and handling ability that you need to have a fun driving experience.
