A turbo doesn't cause parasitic drag. A supercharger, of any form, runs off a belt and leeches power from the engine. Power from a turbo is 100% free.

Well I realize that but wouldn't it be worth it for that much of a power increase? I'm just looking as my options and whatever is gonna be faster is what i want.

ZZP's base turbo kit for $2500 has the potential for 450hp. That's more than 100hp listed for the supercharger. I'd buy their base kit, upgrade fueling, get a boost controller, and buy a cheap intercooler. You'll still be out less than the more powerful S/C kits.

a large turbo, CSC, 100 hp-shot of the giggle gas, IC, race tranny, stage 4 lightening, headers, 3" dp to straight pipes all the way out (or headers to shorty dumps), ram air, lowering kit, roll cage, fire control system, and about 15,000 USD in NA supporting mods. That should get you a Grand Prix thats Gran Prix-Ready.
