then do not attempt to take on a project that requires you to custom fabricate an intake manifold, source all the other parts you need, and tune your results

GM performance parts makes a m62 supercharger kit for your car. I would go that route. I doubt you will max out the power off it anytime soon. You have got too keep in mind the bigger the supercharger the more weight it adds to the vehicle and the more parasitic loss to turn it. You would definatly be in over your head attempting a M90 setup at this point.

It is doable if you have a bit of fabrication skills. If you plan on driving the car a lot i wouldnt recomend it though- with the M90 on my 2.4 i was running 15psi. That supercharger flows a LOT of air, more than you should run on a stock motor. If you are after a lot of power from a built motor go this route, but since you are likely wanting to keep it daily driveable stay with the GM charger kit
