Supercharger for 4.0L SOHC?

So I am new to this site and I was curious to find someone with some info. I am looking for a supercharger for my 2001 Ford Ranger 4x4. It has the 4.0L V-6 and I really want to crank the horsepower. Is there a company who makes a supercharger for that year and engine? If not, is there a turbocharger to push more air for added horsepower? Please let me know. Thanks.

Whats are some more advantages and dissadvantages with turbo vs. supercharger?

I figured the super would push the horsepower more, but the turbo may have quicker response to throttle. Any suggestions would be good. Just looking for a bigger response for the engine. Im going to lift the truck and throw some larger tires on there. Don't want the all show, with the no go response from people.
