Well your going to get people that like both.
I have had both and in my opinion if it's a street car I'd suggest a PD blower, instant power on tap at any RPM. If it's a race car I'd go turbo...

I've had turbo cars before and this is my first time with a supercharger. I would recommend the blower. Super fun for a street car and can handle the track. You would be more prone to heat soak but there are options to help with that. The other thing I noticed is the weight differences between a top mounted blower and turbos. When I had my maggy installed I noticed the additional weight in the front end but the power made up for it. I didn't notice the weight difference when I had turbos installed in my previous vehicles.

I have the agp tt car, but im going say either option your going enjoy the hell out of, turbo cars do require more though on the set up and companion components to really make them shine though
