Turbo uses your exhaust gas to spin the turbine. Supercharger uses the belt. The supercharger takes a little HP from the motor. the Turbo doesn't. However since the supercharger is spooled up all the time. You don't get turbo lag. I'd recomend a supercharger. Ease of install plus no lag.

The easiest F/I is the procharger , the turbo is nice but it takes a lot of
Fabbing . TMA TURBO or ProCharger Centrifugal Superchargers


The Turbo is driven by hot exhaust gases and the supercharger is driven by a belt , both force air into the intake and to put it simply more air more fuel = more power.

STS Remote Turbos would work well, but it would take a lot of fabbing.

i haven't seen a streetable turbo kit for sale. all the one's i've seen are homemade and would not pass smog. i recomend procharger super chargers. good reliable horse power that's intercooled. and they are external so you don't have to replace your intake manifold.
