Default Sound: Turbo vs. Supercharged

This is a really basic question (probably because I'm a newcomer), but what is the difference in the sound of a mod motor Mustang with a turbo as compared to the same car with a supercharger? I'm trying to decide which way to go. Thanks for any opinions you may have. PS- this will be a street car almost exclusively.

Turbo sounds way better and is easier to make power with them.

Turbos go "pshhh" and sound alrightWhile the best sound comes from the KB blower and it goes "whiiiiiiii"
Sorry for the*****y impersonations but you get the idea.
