Instant power, easier to take on and take off, and change how much power you want.

S/C will adversely affect your gas mileage where a good h/c/i swap will do it too... you will notice less of a drop.

definitly go for the AFR heads instead of the trickflow... youll make better power

the S/C will have you making more RWHP. And if its tuned right and you dont drive like a mad man its not going to be any worse on gas the a H/C/I combo. The gas thing is just like with any major mod you start doing. drive nice=desent mileage, dont drive nice=expect to be finding a gas station often.

my H/C/I i get 15-17 mpg in town being nice, and probably 6mpg when I play. Same with highway, ive gotten a best so far of 23mpg on the highway with speeds averaging 85mph, but when I play on the highway I can watch that damn needle go down. your choice man,
