Turbo vs. S/C vs. 3.5L conversion

hey guys, i have been searching and couldn't find a thread that talked about and compared a turbo, supercharger, and 3.5L mdx conversion. I was thinking about doing one of them but don't really know which one will give me the most bang for my buck (~$5,000) as well as be reliable enough to be a daily driver. I don't plan to do any of the install myself. I would appreciate it if you guys/gals could let me know what you think. Any comments or thoughts would be great. oh, by the way i have a 5 speed auto '01 CL-S non-navi (changing the non-navi part on friday! )
