Which way can you get the most hp? I am leaning toward the ADC but i would like to know about the supercharger kits available for the contour as well.

Well...I don't know how to tell you this...Oh yes I do!
I bought the last ADC Turbo kit made - a T3/T4 kit ($6,000). Gonna be one bad-ass 3L turbo SVT in my driveway  . The car's already a lot of fun stock.
There is much talk of a new, lower cost kit soon, so watch this forum. I can't help you with supercharger kits - though the story with those is pretty grim as well.

which turned out to be the biggest piece of junk. I guess, if the kit was done right had potential.
The short answer is, the turbo will make more hp and certainly more power under the curve.

Headlight covers are gh3y - if that kind of mod gets you wet, then you're not ready for a turbo son.
