Neither until you decide on your expectations....drive it stock until you know what you want.

I also recommend lurking around this specific section of the forum, as you will manage to grasp a bit of info about each type of forced induction; in addition you will find issues, and debates about how and why things are done.

I would recommend discarding the idea of a supercharger as its not what this car wants/needs ( IMHO)
Many nice Turbo options exist and my recommendations is look into @FullBlown, @ptuning and @MAPerformance. Pick up the phone and call all these guys and talk to them as they are a very nice bunch whom take all customers with open hands and guide them through out the process, and not let them hang after money has been paid.

A lot of good options out there for either Turbo kits or Superchargers! The market has really come a long way from a year ago!

We're running a sale right now that i think is hard to beat for the quality of the parts!!

As stated many good kits, @AVOturboworld is another to decide on. All those suggested are well worth the price and time spent on research into this platform.

Money is the biggest part of going FI, I would suggest having a budget for double of whatever kit you decide on.

If your set on turbo and price isn't a problem then the Ptuning kit is by far my favorite. However as mentioned above Full blown and AVO have shown great results over and over as well. If supercharging is a possibility look at SHIV'S new OFT300 package with the Vortech, Cheap, Powerful, and sold by in my opinion one of the best if not the best vendors for our platform.

Youd be better off reading through the FI forum and coming back with questions about certain setups. There are a lot of constraints when it comes to picking what FI platform and this is a very open ended statement. Are you going to track it? Are you worried about engine temps(do you live in a warm area/tracking)? Do you have the supporting mods (Clutch, fuel, exhaust, ect.)? How much are you willing to spend? Really you cant go wrong unless you go with a company that gives you half-ass quality/service. So do some reading and come back with questions or answers to the above.
