Default Putting down the money for Supercharger, which one?

Looking for last minute opinions. I've been studying for several months about every type of forced induction I could find for a "02 GT (5-speed) convertible. The only mods I've done is K&N and 3.73 gears. I was planning on all the usual mods to make a strong NA motor but have decided to go FI. I have brand new Steeda U/D Pulleys in my closet (they are for sale!). I've decided Supercharging over Turbo and Centrifugal over Roots. The issue I have is deciding between the Paxton & the Vortech, specifically the Novi 1000 w/ Air to Air Intercooler ands the SQ w/ Water to Air Aftercooler. Obviously from the few mods mentioned I have stock internals (12K fun miles on them) so I will be shooting for 10psi, no more. My eventual goals are 400rwhp safely. It will be a street car though I might take it to the track every now and then. I'm leaning ever so slightly to the Novi 1000 because of the slightly quicker spooling and Air to Air IC (but it will cost me $68 more than the SQ installed ). Opinions anyone???????
