I was wondering the jackson supercharger or a turbo kit. I plan to change the connecting rods, cams, pistons and valve springs, before this but i was wondering which one would work better and be more efficient for a street car. just looking for opionions and suggestions.

Well, first off, this probably is an FI question.
Anyway, you'll here many different arguments, but if you want almost bulletproof reliability for the street, you can't go wrong with a JRSC.
A turbo on the other hand will produce far better gains, but is not as reliable, and is also much more expensive for a kit of good quality (I.E. Focus-Power's or FMAX).
Building the car how you stated is a good plan. I'd stick to a 9:1 compression ratio, maybe Eagle rods for affordability), and a very mild cam (I.E. Crower Stage I) if any at all. The stock cams are very good for boost when tuned correctly.
Hope I could help.
