I love turbo guys........just when they think they're gonna come around me and as they start to wave bye-bye to me ......I flip open my ash tray and with one flip of the switch....oh no you don't, then and only then the real smoke begins..lol just call me a bottle fed baby

i think youve seen the fast and the furious too many times...who the hell sprays half way through the race and not off the line?

seriously tho we are off topic and with that comment I can bring it back. If i couldnt go the turbo route for one reason or another, nitrous would also be a good way to keep the car very streetable while making good power. you could do a cai, exhaust, a 150shot and gears and see 350+rwhp while getting better miliage then stock and no sacrafice to the steetability of the car. only draw back is that you have to keep filling the bottle. one plus tho is that you can race some one without the nitrous and if you loose, turn the nitrous on and challenge them again. with boost, you cant turn it off like nitrous. not every race needs 400rwhp to win

I have to agree with Lucky13 on this one, a head/cam/supercharged car is going to be a lot less streetable than a turbo on a mostly stock 5.0. I recall a guy running around here with stock headed 5.0 making 430whp or so with a single turbo setup, impressive.

i think it was dirtysanches or turbosha iirc dirtysanches had a 10 second car with a stock motor and turbo kit

IMO, the beauty of a turbo car is in the gearing. Anyone could have a fast turbo car with 3.0x-3.2x gears and freeway drive all his heart desires. I can't say the same about my 4.88-geared nitrous car. Either way, you cant go wrong with any type of FI.
