Which model is it? They currently have 10 different models with different potential from each one.

youll make less power with a supercharger since it will use ~20% of the engines output to spin the supercharger. youll still need an intercooler with the supercharger so you might as well go turbo. since you got the supercharger for a great deal. sell that ---- so you can fund your turbo build.

depending on the supercharger and pulley sizes used will determin how much boost it will make.
