Picking my poison! Opinions Needed!

Between supercharging and turbo for drag racing I'd go turbo and for spirited driving or track use id go supercharger. Turbo your going to have a limited rpm range but a lot of power, so say 4k for spooling up and then a smaller turbo like that will start running out of breath towards the rev limit, but you can keep it in that sweet spot in a drag race. For me i like the twisties so i would go supercharger, instant power and a flat torque curve. With that kind of powerband you can use the torque to pull you through a corner then rev it out to the next corner, basically limits the amount of shifting you have to do, which is what i like.

Yeah I'm all about getting that fast 1/4 time. Supposedly blowers heat up to much tho on auto x
 
Or you could do both... Research twin charging. You would probably be the only 9th gen with that kind of setup, but if tuned right you get the best of both worlds since you will be using both the supercharger and the turbocharger to cover different parts of the powerband.

9th gen civic si on the dyno with kraftwerks supercharger kit, full race catted downpipe and stock exhaust. Tuned at 12 psi on 93 octane using hondata Flashpro produced 360 whp / 275 tq.
 
2013 civic si on the dyno with full race efr turbo kit and exhaust, ID 1000cc injectors, rbc intake manifold and hondata Flashpro @fullracemotorsports. Tuning on 7.5 psi tapering to 5.5 psi yielded 320 whp / 280 tq on 93 octane.

I'll be running 10 pounds. Should be close to 400whp with this setup.
 
Picked up my stage 2 prl kit today. He actually threw in 1000cc ID injectors and DW65c fuel pump for free and brand new zdx throttle body. I think this was deal of the year for me.
