Default diff routes..

if you go with the nitrous route first for ur stang, can u just take it out later and then go with the s/c route?

sure, but it helps to just save up all at once and make one big choice IMO

Yes you can, and actually, that's what I planned on doing. I needed a cheap little boost so I'd have some confidence vs other stangs over being stock. Plus nitrous just has this aura to it

My future plans were to get boosted and ditch the nitrous. When I save enough, I'll be switching to a blower. It's totally possible to do.

Yeah, of course. Swapping cams is actually advisable if you're going to be switching to a blower... but the stockers should work just fine.

The kind of stuff you're asking about is all supposed to just work together anyway, it's just simple stuff... For the tougher stuff, ANYTHING can be done, it's just a matter of cost.

not cheap. I had a lot of motor work done and it cost me about $7500. That included boring and stroking from 4.6 to 5.0L comp cams ported and polished heads, all forged internals, new crank, new flywheel, cobra oil pump, and a bunch of little things I cant remember plus instalation.
