sorry kinda long, just have concerns and questions. Thanks in advance for any help! It will be greatly appreciated!!!!

ok, so I have read several threads about this topic, but it always seemed to be about 4 people stating their reasons and I want to get other peoples opinions. I also feel like posting on this board will be more benificial since I won't get smart allec remarks when I ask stupid questions, cause when it comes to superchargers I don't know anything. I know most pros and cons but I just can't seem to make my mind up.
Also, If money wasn't an issue, i would go APS; but it is. I am growing impatient and really want to boost my car now. If i were to get APS, I would have to wait a year maybe. Plus, I am just scared to run Turbo kits without changing the stock internals.... so that is more money. This is also my daily driver.
supercharging is just looking more like reality to me and I am really having to overlook my "superchargers are for domestic, turboes are for imports" menatality I guess. I love turboes but have never experienced superchargers....
what I have read about ATI is that if you get the tuner kit and add your own fuel and timing fixes the kit can be great. The blower is better quality than Vortech? The thing that scares me about ATI is that it has blown engines in the past but this issue stated above seems to make a great kit.
On the Vortech I just don't know if it is such a good idea to tap into the oil pan? can someone further explain to me the pros/cons of this? also the air filter location? These are things that stray me away from Vortech. But it seems that Vortech is highly favored.
Basically, I am not concerend with right out of the box as i want to tune and upgrade. I want what has more potential, because I am going to tune it and add things myself. I guess I like the ATI kit because it can produce more power but it seems that everyone pushes Vortech and I kinda feel like I might make the wrong decision.
I know FI is always a "risk" but I want to be as smart as I can about it
