Need help! What path should I take with my L98 Camaro?
So, I have an 1991 Z-28 with the L98 engine.
It's my first car, so I'm new to building engines and making things go fast, but I drove my father's race car and I want to start going faster (as is with the addiction to horsepower)
What I wanted to know was just some facts and figures about different paths I could take with my car.
Turbocharger- What kinds of pressure could I run with stock internals, and what would I have to get and what I would have to do to make it work, and what kind of Hp/Torque numbers would I be looking at?
Supercharger- I would want to keep fuel injection, as I'm not a fan of tuning carbs and such, does anyone make a full kit with FI, just general feedback and opinions
I was also considering possibly following the LS route.
The car right now is pretty much 100% stock.
I was just looking for some general opinions from experience and all that on what I should do first, and what are pros and cons about different methods and such, or what should I do to my car first before thinking about forced induction.
Any help would be unbelievably appreciated!

Just an fyi most TC and SC systems can run you 3 grand for a basic setup, all extras add up extremely fast.
