lmao, nitrous is one of the easiest and most inexpensive power adders you can add to any car, however its not something you can just slap on and go. Your car needs to be setup to handle it, both from a suspension standpoint, and an engine standpoint.

id start suspension brakes rims and tires then go for the drivetrain last the looks and nitrous isnt that cheap the kits are but refills do add up over time id go for propane or alcohol does the same thing and cheaper to refill
