Default HP Question?

I am a newbie when it comes to domestics but I have a guy that I work that has a 5.0 and sprays NOS. He said he is gonna put a stroker on it and some nice suspension with slicks on the rear, and a 200 shot of NOS and will be running in the 10's in the quarter and about 500whp. How true is this? I know he is already messing up his car running NOS almost everyday. If so I may get one and push all kinds of horse!

Thanks! He acts like he knows everything there is to know about cars. He told me he is interested in getting a Dodge SRT-4 and said that he will show big gains by removing a spring inside fo the turbos waste gate. I asked a friend about that and he said it will not work properly!
