nitrous...well, you'll run out eventually and after several years, you'll have spent quite a bit more than on a turbo setup. and also, the nitrous can seriously damage you engine from overstressing and overheating if the nitrous is injected for too long. a turbo doesn't need to worry about it
I'll probably go with Nitrous, but college seems to want to come a year early, but looking into running either safely, it's about the same cost for parts/tuning. I'm planning on partly stipping the car out. I mean 250whp in a 1900lb car isn't bad...

But any kind of power is way off in the future. Might order a header next week though. And do the exhuast. I'm thinking of doing it Twin Loop.
