Default 00' z28 A4 Boosted?

hey guys, just wanting some input on what would be the best setup as far as forced induction on my car. what i would need? approx cost? I cant really decide on whether i like turbo or supercharger better. I really like the sound of both but dont really know alot about either of the setups i know as far as turbos go its a rear mount, and i guess a custom exhaust manifold setup for in the engine bay. any help on the subject? thanks

A Procharger D1SC from EPP will get you at or around the 500 rwhp in a hurry and with a warranty. As far as total project cost, that's a different story.

I have been looking for a while for an answer to this question but, i have a relativity similar setup, what would be a safe amount of boost without worrying about hurting the motor or drive line.

you have to understand that added power such as these systems is in no way "NOT" gonna hurt the motor or driveline, these cars werent made to put this stuff on, but the universal safe amount is about 7-8psi
