Nothig is wrong with either choice, but turbo cars are always gaster and make more power and tq than a superharged equivelant. Talk about 'poor drivability' with a turbo is all bs.
In other words, get what is going to accomplish your goals, but if making power is your goal, go with a turbo.

Although I do agree with this for the most part, I have to disagree with the remarks to power production.
I've seen several 2.0L engines making over 400whp with a supercharger. And a lot of them don't push over 14psi.
A Supercharger can make over 350whp. But it takes the supporting mods to do so.
