just trying to pull as much power out of that little engine without the huge bill for a turbo or supercharger...have looked a little into NOS but not to sure about that either till I learn more about the maintenance and overall costs. I'm in the military so I don't really make much money. overall hp and torque is what I'm looking to increase over time. just a daily driver, nothing special. I'm hoping to get some pictures up as soon as I can, even though it's not much to look at.

NITROUS not NOS is the best bang for the buck

I've seen all the advertisments for nitrous...but what is the overall cost for it? I'm pretty sure that the $500 for the kit isn't it....or is it?
