Default Help me decide bolt ons vs non intercooled supercharger

Well i recently got hired on full time at the leader in medical grade wire so im making 16.47 an hour considering im 19 i dont think thats to bad at all. But ive really been indisicive about what direction i want to go with my car. Superchargers are SALTY but are def worth the money. heres the setups im debating and need some opinions of your guys and the money aspect..... my car is a daily driver and an automatic. I also already have staggered anthracite FR500's.

#1
FRPP Hot Rod Cams
Hooker Headers, Hooker offroad X, pypes muffler deletes, or full MAC exhaust.
JLT CAI
LCA's
One-Piece driveshaft
Brenspeed Tune
3.73 Gears
Eibach-Pro Kit
CDC Classic Painted
GT500 Spoiler
New rims? black FR500's?
(Yes i do realize how loud the hooker exhaust and muffler deletes will be)

#2
Eibach Pro-Kit
Vortech non-intercooled supercharger.

#3
Save up for a kenne bell or whipple.

You already know you want a supercharger. In fact you even know you want a twin screw. Any money spent on anything else is a total waste.

twin screw all the way! I'm getting the Kenne Bell stage 2 personally but everyone who has a whipple has good things to say, either kit is a good choice.

the all-motor mods are cool but you're not going to get the power that a blower will give you. I'd rather pay $6,000 and gain 200whp than pay $3,000 for 50whp, just me
