I have no experience with a turbo, but my SC has worked well.

Turbo FTW. Why take power to make power?

Um, I may be wrong, but isnt a Supercharger more reliable than going Turbo (i remember reading this somewhere)?
oh and for the Tranny deal, i would "think" boost is boost,  so wouldnt the stress on Tranny be the same?

No. They put different stressed on the pistons and crank. I have a 10-page article in a Super Street at home comparing the pros and cons of turbo, supercharging, nitrous and NA. I should scan that article to my photobucket or find it online...

the turbo supercharger debate has been raging forever, i doubt we will solve it in this thread. 

I am no baised one way or the other, i have seen some really nice turboed cars and some really nice supercharged cars. 

So with that being said my vote goes to N/A. 

I would say go turbo, but either way would work

however i also think automatic trannies are worthless to put any sort of power through.
