Titan supercharger

You are correct bullitt and please allow me to elaborate...

When I say that turbo kits aren't as reliable I am not referring to the engine reliability or tune. I am referring to the issues that arise due to the heat such as cracked turbo's due to rapid changes in temperature (basically stopping after a hard run) and oil leaks and stuff like that. Those are all user generated reliability issues most of the time though.

The reliability of the engine is 100% up to the tune(r.)

Exactly. Engine-reliability is completely dependent on the tune and how far you chose to push the envelope, but reliability in this context has nothing to do with weather or not you're going to blow your engine. Where a supercharger has a turbo-kit beat hands down is overall worry-free operation, and this has almost nothing to do with power-level.
