Need help with supercharger!!!!!!!

Ok i was talking to a guy who has a newer camaro. Well he said since i am young and dont have a hole lot of money he said put a charger on it. I said that would cool i guess but he also said i would also have to swap out my pistons.
So if i buy one can it also fit a 350?
What is a good brand that will give me like 100hp the cheapest way?
What all will i have to do to my engine?
What type of pistons are the best flat top?
How much will everything end up to be?
thanks
kevin

Good new supercharger kit will cost you anywhere between 2300 and 3200. I recommend Procharger kits because they come with an intercooler, FMU and inline pump. The "other" kits don't. Any other kit will cost you 2300+. You COULD just buy a fresh 350 for well under 2500 but its up to you. NOTE, I had bought a new supercharger kit and put in on my car when it only had a 350 and only 34000 miles. I GRENADED my 700r4 on the highway. So, take that for what it's worth when you're making a decision.
