Default SuperCharger or 347?

What would you guys choose a 347 or a supercharger and why?

P.S: the car is going to be used weekly, and under a very hot weather.

I'd say supercharger b/c It'll be easier to install and get better gas mileage.

Yeah but people will know your running a S/C cause they can see and hear it. If you go 347 than nobody will ever know unless you tell them. Plus you can say you don't need a power adder to get you to go fast. HAHA! JK: I have an NX wet shot so I just made fun of myself

Plus if your in a hot climate the S/C does make a lot of heat! My 2 cents

Supercharger - with H/C/I you can push your block to it's limits with stock cubic inches. It will have better resale than a used 347 shortblock also.
