Default Forced Induction or Car Upgrade?

I've done some reading around on FI on here, and understand you can't cheap out on a FI build if you want it fast and reliable. I bought my lightly used Z a couple months ago, and I basically want something with more "uumph". Don't get me wrong, the Z is fast, but I want something faster with more torque. I was considering buying a C6 vette when I purchased my Z, but they were a little more expensive for me. I half regret not saving up a little more and purchasing one.

So at this point I'm trying to decide if I should look into selling my Z and go with something like a 'vette, or if I should stick with the Z, save up for a forced induction build, and go that route? If I went with FI, I'd probably go with a supercharger since A.) they're cheaper, and B.) more reliable. I'd be looking to get around 375 - 450WHP. I do daily drive my Z, so that's why reliability is big for me as well. If I looked into selling my car, I'd probably still lose some money due to the trade in, refinancing, etc. I know it wouldn't be the same as FI, but I could always look into adding a CBE, intake, and a tune as well.

Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks!

- Edit ----------------
If anyone would like to recommend a car besides a C6, please feel free to as well.
