The MPG will be horrific, but they do give instant power, and sound very nice.

The supercharger is now up for sale. Its going to the IMM with just the 998 and I will probably turbo the engine, instead of the supercharger.
The supercharger has the manifold with it as well, and is for sale in the for sale section if anyone is interested.

Just preference as always.
Supercharger is better in many ways, just not what i want, I feel more passion for a small turbo even with all its flaws and draw backs.
I haven't fully decided what I will do, but the supercharger is going.

Go for it. The supercharger gives a good amount of power throughout the range I am told. I just lost interest in general.
The link to my supercharger is here, if you're interested.

Sonic is all done and MOT'd. Fair bit of welding done, finished in at £480!
at least he will be at IMM!
