Ya nitros is the shit...until the bottle's empty.

And your saying that nitros is better than turbo because you can launch and then hit the juice... well that's kindof what a turbo does anyway.

Juice is great and all but certainly not better than a turbo...

Spool up time is only an issue in first gear and only if you don't launch above 2-3k. Plus the power on a turbo doesn't have to be progessive... if your running 12 psi max your spooled to that at like 3500-4000 rpm so your "hundred hp 500 rpm before redline" is WAY off. first off your talking about 100 hp easy at 4k if you spool over 12 then your talking about 100hp at 4k and anywhere from 120-300 hp by about 6k max.

Buy a bottle and you gotta get it filled everytime you want to use it. You don't have any of that power off the track (unless your a rich moron and run nitros on the street.)

As far as launch traction there are WAY more options to control turbo power then there are for nos.
Say you do hit the button as soon as you hook up.. well what if you loose traction as soon as you hit it. nitros is on or off... a turbo adds it's power WAY more smoothly than nitros.
