im a nitrous fan, for a few reasons

is a little cheaper, initially
it hits right away, doesnt have to build boost
my 100 shot car is going faster then most 8psi blower cars around here(i said most, lol)
theres no extra weight on the front end of the car
the stress of the poweradder isnt there all the time like a blower, i still get stock *** gas milage daily driving
hook up is damn simple(usually)


i could keep goin lol

I say boost, I would take either, but I don't race mine, so nitrous is not as attractive to me

Boost! I like the power all the time. But it is up to you.
Depends on if you are ok with a quick fix of power here and there, or if you are like most of us who are full blown power addicts who need it all the time.

Its like crack. Your either just starting the drug and can get by with a fix here and there, or your so bad off that you need some sort of crack IV to get through the day.

LMAO!

Both, If you have the money to buy a supercharger than buy one. If you don't than it looks like your gonna have to settle for n02.

I like boost better...initially it is more expensive but in the long run it is cheaper...plus it would suck having a nitrous set up and not having enough money to refill it...at least the boost is always there whenever you need or want it...

i love that argument!

the average s/c kit is what like 4k?

i have heater, wideband, window swciht, purge, tach adapter, etc...

by time i spend as much as i would have getting an s/c ill be on my 73rd bottle (and thats paying a ridiculous 4.50 a pound in town as oppose to 3.50 at the track)

if i olny fill up at track ill make it thorugh 94 bottles before having spent 4k on my poweradder!
