Default nitrous or PI swap

Which would be better for power, and the 1/4 mile. If it was nitrous it would be a 100 shot.

You do both. That year needs the high compression heads to get hp. Nitrous cars do best under high compression.

You gotta pay to play. Try to find em used but good luck. Your looking at 500.00 at least and about 1000.00 labor. Nitrous kit about 500.00 and you should be able to put that in yourself.

Well, your wrong, your nissan has a hamster wheel for a motor which is why you need low compression.

acually no my nissan doesnt have a hamster wheel for an engine. that engine is more durable than a mustang engine. and can beat most people on this forum.
