Default 08 auto s/c or t/c

Hey iv done most of my researching but i still cant decide which way to go..if i go t/c will i benifit more in the future because i can do more mods to bring up the hp...or can i do the same with s/c

so im basically deciding between

Dezod Motorsports S1 Turbo System-Scion tC 07-08 Automatic Transmissions

and

TRD Supercharger
if i go wit the supercharger i would also be buying a aem f/i managment system

yeah and the auto tranny can only take i think 250ish whp. so build the internals and what wont do you any good. i would either get the s/c or trade it back in which shouldnt be difficult at all and get a 5 speed. either route you go, good luck.

Get the automatic turbo from dezod. All that you would need to keep the transmission from slipping is a transmission cooler. They offer it with the auto turbo kit from dezod, I think.

how about this, figure out about how much power you want to get out of your tc.

now, without upgraded the automatic transmission, you can only make about 250 whp.

now, calculate how much money it would take for you to get a turbo automatic tc to that power level, and then calculate how much it would cost you to get a supercharged to to that much power.

you can get supercharger for less than 2 grand if you have an 05-06 tc. with a 9.5 psi pulley, and intake header exhaust, and tune with a piggyback you can make like 210 whp.

or you can get a turbo kit, gauges, piggyback exhaust, and you can get to like 250 whp easy.
