Turbo for the simple fact that it would be cheaper and easier to do, because it doesn't sound like you have the budget.
Plan on spending $2500 on turboing the N/A motor or Turbo engine swap. You may not need all that money, but its nice to have some extra padding incase you need to get new tools and such.

Id like to slap a supercharger on my vert for the more linear throttle response and instant power, but considering how hot rotary's run, its kind of a shame to waste all that excess heat flowing straight out the back, especially when compared to a piston engine. Wouldnt the SC install be easier tho, cause only the intake would need to be re-routed, and the SC mounting location wouldnt be as tricky to get all the tubing to?

Even though SC's are more reliable and give instant power,
Nothing gives me a rush like boost in the powerband.
