I have one of each.
my turbo is quiet and makes a ton of torque.
my supercharger makes power in relation to rpm and is noisy.
my next project will have twin turbos 'cause they are neat.
I guess what I'm saying is its up to you and your skill level.
oh yeah they all use DFI
I also have a nitrous car that I race because I have plenty
of time between rounds to change the bottle

Do a search for people running combos that will be close to what
you want to run. But it all goes back to your wallet and your skill.
