              Now if this certain stock ever hits $9-10... A blower will be ordered immediately
              this is because i have never liked nitrous. haha. im just being biased. also, youre going to be too much faster than me if you do it. i dont think i could handle that. do you have any idea how far behind i am as is? it sucks and therefor no one should mod their cars at all til im up and running and caught up a little bit. hahahahahaha.

              do what you want. the car will be sick and then you wont have stage two sti's sticking with you on the highway.

                          Blower = constant boost and bad gas mileage
                          Nitrous = only bad gas mileage when you juice it.


                          IDEA: Get a purge kit, drill a hole in the pony's nose on your grill and run your purge lines to the nose, so when you purge the pony will breathe smoke. So F'in sweet.



                          Bad side to nitrous - Temps, altitude, and how full the bottle is will affect horsepower, so it will almost never be constant. But I highly suggest nitrous.

                            I could be wrong but dosn't Nitrous put extra wear and tair on stock internals? So basicly shortining the life of your motor.

                              I am seriously considering running a bottle on the mustang. It is 4k cheaper than a blower for nearly the same perfomance.

                                Of course. The extra burn is pushing the pistons down harder putting more force on the bearings. Anything you do to your vehicle with shorten life span and dependability of a vehicle. Engineers spend a lot of time and money designing a vehicle. They are designed to run on stock parts, so they use the cheapest/lightest material they can use while still being able to hold up. Once you modify something it could push that bearing or head gasket etc. past its threshold.
