IMO N2O is fine for Drag Racing its only fun in short bursts, and its not constant power... My suggestion is to run both...

Amen to that boys!

If you use both in your setup, the longer spool-up time on a bigger turbo wont matter too much. Cause of the N2O accelerating the process.

And when the Turbo is up, well you know how it goes...





Or 2 Turbos. 1 small one to serve the same purpose as the N2O.

First, What's Your Budget?

That's a pretty big factor. Also what do want to accomplish? N2O is great. That sudden burst of power can give you a great rush. I can't speak on behalf of turbos....yet.

Like I'd recommend to anyone, figure out your long term goals before you invest in anything.

And I agree with the others, if your budget allows for it get both.
