Cool Suggestions on adding Supercharger or Twin Turbos to a 6.9 Sedan?

Hello,
Curious what might be the best way to go?
Supercharge or twin turbos on my 1976 MB 450SEL 6.9 Sedan - Euro Model?
Any thoughts or input would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I wouldent do either! the 6.9s are gaining value and It is my belief that big bucks will be lost if you mod the engines.. Get a 450 or something else to mod?

That car is so classy. I would leave it and just restore the paint work!

If you do a search on this site:http://www.m-100.cc/forum/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=5

...you'll find both a turbo'd 6.9 and a supercharged 6.9 on that forum.
