Also, do a turbo if you want to do boost-by-gear, boost-by-rpm, multiple boost maps, etc. It is also easier to run a turbo with FlexFuel/E85, especially when E85 is not always available; I would need to swap pulleys if I couldn't get E85 or drive around without going into boost or something, but a turbocharged car could just do boost-by-fuel by either limiting boost or just running a completely separate map. Finally, you can always swap to a different sized turbo or vary exhaust and compressor sizes if you are not happy with your turbo profile. You can swap superchargers too, but it isn't always as easy or an option. The JRSC has the C30 and C38, but the Edelbrock kit doesn't offer a different sized blower. It is typically much easier to option a turbocharger of your desire during an initial purchase, and it is easier to make a swap later--typically.
