Depends what your aiming for and what you have to work with I guess. I have the lower comp & a s300 which is win for me if I go down this route.

I see where your coming from for the SC on high comp & of course the tuning point of view with the ATTS.
PAW rebuilt 98 prelude 228bhp & 171lb/ft R.I.P.
PAW rebuilt 01 ATR 238bhp & 164lb/ft sold
Monte Carlo Blue 02 S2K :D

you can run hi comp with superchargers for one. and they are A LOT easier to instal and get working reliably.
you can run a turbo on high comp, no reason that a super charger is any difference.

the issue is (although not an issue as such) with turbo's is the fact that you can run higher boost and power much easier which will put strain on all the internals. a nice tune on lowish boost will be sweet!

Just ignore it, something along the lines of just telling it to shut up should do the trick!
