your car being non-pi, i would say spray and heads/cams/intake. a supercharger will only net you at most about 300rwhp tuned without heads. Heads/cams/intake/nitrous will net you about 350-370rwhp and well into the 400's rwtq. so you will definitly get more from the h/c/i/nitrous than a blower.

i like nitrous myself.. when i race similar cars that have a charger instead of spray, i tend to walk around them

the power is instant, and doesnt build up, no heat soak, etc... but yea you have to fill a bottle...

i also like how i can dd it, flip a switch, and do big things
