Better off going with turbo/supercharger or swap for a V6?

Model of accord in my sig, but I currently have a 4 cyl, ulev, vtec engine. The acceleration is god awful. Would I be better of with an engine swap or adding turbo/supercharger?

Boost it, those 2.3 hold a lot of boost and its fairly cheap to do, plus your ability to customize your boost and tune maps, more options. Plus its always cool to see boosted accords, not to many of them around, i will say if you plan on running more the 8-12 pounds of boost then i would up the compression throw some upscale cams and bigger injectors. But 8-12 is plenty for daily driver.

Neither; you'd be much-much better off selling your car and buying a faster car. Fact, adding forced induction to your car WILL destroy your transmission in relatively short order, and swapping it for a V6, while not impossible, is extremely difficult.
