Question ss not supercharged???

I just recently got back stateside and never really worked on cars. I just recently got an 07 ss cobalt with the ecotech 2.4 that doesnt come supercharged. the compression ratio is showin about 10.5:1 is it worth it to even try throwin a turbo or supercharger at it? and are there even any to fit that type engine? any help would be greatly appreciated.

Drools, some say you can source everything you need for much cheaper but this is the complete kit including tune.

Slick, but fully $2k more than the M62 supercharged. I could add a full exhaust and FE5/Pedders combo for that price with some beer money left over.
