Jakes list of things you need to replace is a bit on the "cover your ass" side. You dont need everything on that list, but you definitly need the fuel system stuff. more air going into the motor means you'll need more fuel.

If this is just a street car that will see the track every now and then, I'd go with a centrifugal supercharger. There is nothing wrong with either power adder when set up properly, but the supercharger will be a simpler install (dont have to change exhaust setup amongst other things).

Turbos are better overall than superchargers for a ton of reasons....but definitly not cost . Turbos are more tune-able and will make more power in a max effort motor (ever notice that turbo cars have the most handicaps in bracket racing?), but thats only gonna happen in a race car, not a street car.

either way you decide to go, you're gonna love it! good luck.
