i would go nitrous, cheapest (short term) and you can move it from car to car and its the easiest to upgrade and use.

Cool Rocket Fuel

Rocket Fuel! From the "good old days" Oldsmobile Rocket 88 ROCKET FUEL.... currently called Methyl Alcohol and Water Injection.
about $500 for a good kit. Basically an "on demand" system to pump windshield washer fluid into the intake air stream. Will work with NA, SC, or Turbo, 2.0, 2.2, or 2.4L. Probably the safest, easiest, and most HP increase for the investment https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/advanced-performance-modifications-130/official-water-meth-injection-thread-79710/

depends on what you're going for...

nitrous has the best movability, the m62 (ss/sc)supercharger swap has the best bang for the buck. but turbo will produce the best results in the end..

what are your HP goals? thats the best questions ... if you're going for 250-300 the m62 swap might be best for you as you can get everything for under 2K and install it yourself..

if you're looking at more then that i'd say turbo is a much better route for you.

the other question is do you want to go pshpsh or WHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNN EEEEEEEEEE

also make up your mine quickly with is MORE important to you. performance or looks.. i have a 50/50 thing going but for the total i've spent i could've done the m62 swap already
