Turbo's are a little more work, but there are def worth it in the end.

Turbos can def. put down more power..but are known to be much less reliable than a s/c..it's your choice really..
what kind of kit do u have ecotec??
I have a Saab TD04. It's off of the Saab 9-3(HO versoin). I have barely any turbo lag and the power is awesome. I just put it on last weekend.

damn thats nice... how much did that all run u??
I bought a kit off ebay...actually a fellow org member... for $1600 which included the turbo, exhaust manifold, downpipe, FMIC, injectors, new map sensor, various bolts and nuts, oil lines...etc. Pretty much everything except gauges and spark plugs.In all probably around $2500 total.
Superchargers are nice, but you can only go so far. the only way to get more boost is to change the pulley But with a turbo you just turn up the boost. and turbo's won't have any problems with heatsoak.
Personally I would rather have a turbo over the charger, but don't get me wrong there are a few people who have put up some impressive times with the supercharger.
Your choice. Good luck with it.

As long as you get a decent sized FMIC you will have no problems with heatsoak, but I have heat soarked my SMIC on my talon a few times...
