turbo or a supercharger, i'm looking for 950+ horsepower

Answers:

Are there any places where I can smash up my car where it's legal?

Seems like the cast iron will be stronger. Since you are going to boost it...you might want to lower the compression. This will allow you to run higher boost pressures and not have to worry so much about heat. You also will be about to run a more aggressive tune with a lower compression.

If you do go with an aluminum block...make sure you get it sleeved.
