Wink Supercharge OR Turbocharge

I know this is somewhat redudant of the last post i did but the title isn't getting any hits. I am looking for some feedback on supercharging vs turbo in an 86 sport that is haveing a motor built as we speak. I am building it with gsl-se rotors, turbo housings and street ported. I dont need anyone to tell me that a turbo is top end power and a supercharger is low end power. I am just looking for opinions based on expirence or good knowledge of both.... i am very torn between the two. I am eventually going with a 20b, but that is going to be around 5 years or so. I just want a bad a** car and this is going to be it.

Anyone who has done either setups and then modified from there please let me in on what your results were. I am thinking maybe a twin screw supercharger, then increasing the fuel flow and an independant management system.....JUST A THOUGHT. Let your opinions fly. Please give me some of your results PLEASE!!

THanks all!!!!

Both can net you the same gains, but a turbo will do it a whole lot cheaper.

what are you talking about? your other thread got responses. what are you ultimately looking to accomplish when this is completed? i'd say just turbocharge the thing give it adequate support (fuel, engine management, cooling, etc.) and be done with it.
