I'm not wanting to make this car an absolute beast. I just want 500 horses lol. That's my goal and I'm sticking to it. I think I can get it with a centri and save money while doing it.

If I'm on the highway for a period of say a half hour I can get 20mpg, in town it does not matter how nice I am I have never gotten better than 14, if I drive like a ***** I get closer to 10.

I personally would never run nitrous through my engine block, if money is not an issue I think it has to be a supercharger hands down.

May sound stupid but for me spray is just one of those cheap things anyone can get.
It does not seem like a REAL addition to your car either.

The supercharger is there and is a mean piece of hardware just waiting to whine it's way to glory lol!
Gahhh.... that whine... the noise is almost worth the cost itself lol!

IF you want this then supercharge it for sure.
You dont want the HP only when that darn bottle is filled.

Get the power there PERMANENTLY!

Well I'm going to withdraw some money from my account and start saving now I suppose. I have $1300 or so to put towards it so far.

Ditto.. the power increase is so addicting and powerful, it'll make you do crazy things.

Like take it off every winter and install it during the summer rofl
(long story)

Honestly, I can not imagine driving a NA GT even with bolt ons once I driven it supercharged.. there is simply no comparison. And I am running "low" boost (10 psi)

PS

you could experiment with running a nitrous mist intercooler cooler sprayer if you want an added cooling modification. Better yet, meth injection is even better from what I hear (misted onto the intercooler)

One of the joys of living in georgia, I don't have to worry about winter lol.

And that translates into extra power?

Save your cash for the real thing dude. Stealth is correct, going back to a N/A car after supercharging......no way never. The power you feel is so addicting. The bottle is a taste, thats it. Save for the real deal.
