Default Turbo charge or super charge??

I've been doing research on both forced inductions and looking at the different brands but I can't decide which is better for me or to even know what I would like to consider. Any thoughts on the issue would help.

If you are supercharging your Scion, then it's too old to boost anyways so don't worry about it.

Sanders, I have a brand new Kraftwerks kit in the classified section. Selling it for $700 off what Kraftwerks retails it for.

KW sells the SC system for $4000 - I am asking $3300. It's complete, and bolt on - ready to make 300whp easy, or more depending on mods, fuel, and tune. The only thing you need is your choice of tuning package, and a tune.

$3300 would get you a cheap sprintex (non intercooled) kit making 230whp or so (why bother at that level?). For the same price, KW sells a full system (and intercooler) making 300whp+ easy.
