running a SC (like the 4agze or 1ggze) would also entail the ABV (air Bypass valve) and programable ecu to turn off/on the SC as well enabling the ABV when required. plus you'd have all manner of fabricated bracketry and piping. ABV is used to bypass the SC when you're not under boost.
Don't forget that going boosted SC or turbo would entail larger injectors and ECU. your factory hardware will not be up to the task of feeding and controlling a boosted engine.
probably (slightly) easier to go turbo, your main costs would be:
zorst manifold & dump
turbo
slightly larger injectors
programable ECU
get a cheap T25 turbo (ex RB20DET or similar) from ebay or similar - will cost you between $200-400. consdering you're only after 5psi, then a CT20 might do the job anyway.
manifold & dump from someone like exotic exhausts - $500-600
injectors - $100-150
ECU - pick a number between $500 and $1500
ann another $1k for things to fix/upgrade/improve while you're there.
An RB20 turbo is cheap enough to be a consumable item, plus it's a T3 flange making replacements easy to find and attach to the manifold.
