Default Full blown, SOS or kraftwerks

So I am in the beginning stages of moving forward and investing in boost for my CR.

Car has about 39,000 miles
Js racing 70 RR headerback
Js SLP header
AEM CAI
Flashpro w/Jeff Evans E-tune
SOS sport clutch and lightweight flywheel

I am debating between the full-blown stage 2 new kit, SOS stage 2 or the new Kraftwerks high boost kit
Planning on running 400 whp daily driver

So inputs, suggestions, questions what do you guys think in my best bet. Eventually I am sure I am going to want more power so I want room to grow also
But considering being a daily driver I am in San Diego so heat is not too bad, don't really take long road trips this is more just to enjoy boost. May do some auto x and 1/8th mile drags
I never clutch drop or launch the car

Let me know what you guys think looking forward to hearing from y'all

For your needs go turbo and don't waist your time with a supercharger.

Being that you have a CR, a nice exhaust and header, I'd go kraftwerks or SOS. A turbo will get you the upgradablilty you're looking for. Just get a kit that doesn't require relocation or doing something irreversible.

Despite the new kraftwerks kit being very nice, I would either do the full blown or SOS stage 2. Both can do 400whp+ easily, but the new full blown kit is really new so there isn't a reliable feedback on it but I expect it to be very nice. The SOS stage 2 is a really good choice for a daily driver.

All good points love the feedback guys keep it coming I am curious for those who have done turbo or supercharger what your thoughts are if you can start all over

I mean we all know turbo cars are more fun that boost pulls hard and fast nothing beats the sound of a turbo

I never saw the gains of supercharging being worth the cost. Atleast with turbo kits, you can get a lot more "bang for your buck" so to speak.

get the biggest supercharger kit you can run it as you want. Just start with maybe smaller injectors and fuel pump to match, as you want more power increase the injector size and ultimately the fuel pump capability too. Even use a restriction plate on the charger to help keep the power down as you want it initially.

The full blown kit will net you what you need and more. It comes down to your budget and how comfortable you are with the maintenance of a turbo or supercharger. Also... do you have to worry about emissions testing?
