I think GTM's Stage II SC kit has proven that you don't have to get "less power" with a SC... It's more like different power... Turbos spool, then boost and feel great but you've got to stay in the boost. SCs are always there... They give you a linear curve but lack the kick in the pants feeling that abrupt boost creates. That is not to say that one is better than the other... You need to evaluate your goals and budget then go from there.
For the Z34 platform, I say SC. For the Z33... Now that is another story.
