juice is the fastest, no power adder comes close to the TQ they make. plus once you hit 3k or where ever you start your spray it's an instant 100hp + a shiat load of TQ (depending on shot size)
but yes the bottle will run out.....

Last time i replied to a topic like this I became public enemy #1....my give a damns busted. BOOST - Any kind you can get for cheap. $3400 for mine used with boost-a-pump, fuel pump, boost and a/f wideband gauge. Can't hardly beat that. Without the gauges it would have been $2900. A buddy of mine got his vortech with everything needed to plug and play for $1600.

I've wanted to try the 1500$ thread in the boost section, but I wouldn't even have a clue what to look for in the actual S/C. Any tips?
Also those that are saying N20, what brand is best? and what type of shot?(I think wet is better right?)

How close are you to a fill station? It's a street car, are you going to be content to drive without the horsepower or are you going to be running to a fill station every week? If you use it alot, nitrous becomes expensive. $50 per week is still $2600 per year. That quickly pays for a supercharger. You can get a complete new Mongoose kit for $3,900.
My gas mileage only went down at most a half mile per gallon after installing the supercharger.

I wouldn't even know how close the closest fill station is. I know there is one in town somewhere because I know a few kids who own lolricers that are juiced.
I would rather S/C it. I would probably go through a bottle every 2ish weeks.
I'm not set on a S/C so I would still like to know what some good N20 kits are. And what to look for if I were to buy a used S/C unit.
