Your truck looks awesome but it just cost me a few thousand dollars for sure since it helped me decide I want to go up to 37's.

Thanks for the comment! Sorry about that. I'm definitely not looking forward to buying a set when these are done!

What do you guys think about a turbo instead of a supercharger? What are the pros and cons of both?

Supercharge, twin screw. Added power stays the same through the rpm range making fuel management/tune more manageable and predictable. Way easier install than turbo.
