I would do a TT if you have the money there is more room to expand if you wish to down the road. The SC will be great at first but boost is addicting and so is the need for more power. You won't regret a TT kit however you may regret the SC kit on the other hand maybe you will be one of the few that is satisfied with the new found power
most people find that after a year or two the rush you got from your car wears off and you will start to crave more power. i have driven and owned several SC cars and several turbo cars. Its hard to beat the torque and room to grow the TT will give you.

the above is all just IMO. Either way i am sure it would be bad a$$.

yeah i understand your point. I may just save. the uprev tech is pushing TT on me also. if i do TT i will need to save 9K more. The TT kit i want installed is 19k.
I would just do a SC with nitrous.
It is actually my plans and what I did before with my RSX. It is a perfect set up. I had the supercharger at 9 psi which gave plenty of power for daily driving and low stress on the motor. If I really needed more for a track or something, I could just open up the nitrous bottle and add 150 shot to it. Torque is good with TT, but nothing can match the torque from nitrous.
SC plus nitrous is honestly an amazing set up and pretty much perfect. You get the reliability, lower cost, less stuff to go wrong, more power on the low end, crazy torque, and it is much easier to adjust for more power by just changing jet size.

Usually just nitrous isnt a good idea unless you already have a strong power base. 300 hp really isnt that much, so you will constantly want to be spraying. It will get costly very quickly.
But if you have a supercharger, you can easily have 500 whp. That is usually sufficient for the average person to drive around with. Then if you need little more for the track, you open up the bottle and you will have around 600 hp, 700 tq.
