Default superchargers vs. nitrous

lets put it this way blowers are legal and nitrous is illegal & can be very dangerous if u get into an accident. NO2 is cheaper than a blower but u have to constantly have to refill the bottle. If I had a choice i would get a blower.

If you can afford it, a supercharger is better. Im going the nitrous route myself though

Haha ya buddy!


For a stang you should be able to get a SC for a decent price, thats the route id take. I know a guy bolted a 03 cobra eaton on his mach1 and it cost him a fraction of an aftermarket one.

Where is it illegal? And as far as an accident, it is non-flammable.

The constant fill ups are a pain in the a**. It costs me $40.00 for a refill.

I think any compressed gas can be dangerous.
