What do you guys think ..for a 12 street or bridge ported motor?Turbo? or Supercharger?

I can drop the supercharger in my self ...but whats better for horsepower to money? I know by the time I get turbo ,intercooler...turbo timer and the piping ran for it ..I will have just burnt about 3500$ -4k..and I saw a supercharger going for about 2400$...



Im not into turbo to much ...but someone told me that I need like 5 lbs of fuel for ever lbs of boost im pushing and on a carburator set up turbo is not good ...the lbs of fuel dont sound right..Im already pushing 7 lbs and stock is like 4 lbs...







ALSO HELP ME ...I NEED A 1985 GSLSE REAR END..POSI...HOPEFULLY WITH 4.444 GEARS OR 4.11 .also I need the ft strut/hub assembly same year...

The supercharger will give a nice power increase, but turbocharging the car would be the best for max power.

Yes but whats better for the money?and I think its hard to blow a supercharger compared to a turbo blowing ...and how hard is it to hook up turbo to a carburated engine?
