I dunno, the point is, the person needs to decide how much power they want and go at it that way. hundo hp is easy with nos. a COUPLE hundo hp is only done by boost.

I had a ZEX dry nitrous setup on my old LT1 WS-6 Trans Am awhile ago.
The initial setup cost is dirt cheap compared to a supercharger or turbo.
But let me tell you, with forced induction, you don't have to worry about things like empty bottles, window switches, and bottle pressure.
And getting caught with an empty bottle SUCKS
.
Let me also say that the bottle refills begin to add up over time, because the extra power is addicting.
Oh, and constantly worrying about getting pulled over and the smog ***** seeing the nitrous setup...that's no fun either.
Save yourself the trouble and just spend a little more and get a supercharger or turbo setup...

yeah i liked the blower on my camaro made a lot of power using the ls6 manifold and 317 heads...to make it cheaper maybe ill by the head unit new and the rest of the kit used... but i like the power to always be there

I used to get annoyed with filling up the bottle all the time, but the waiting -to heat up argument is just a non-factor. If you're out cruising, you should have the heater on. If not, just spray it anyway! It's not like you're going to have negative HP if the bottle pressure is not up all the way. it still hits. I had electric bottle opener and a good heater and I was pretty much ready any time the opportunity resented itself. Plus, there's nothing like that torque busting the tires lose at 70 MPH!
