Weighing my options, opinions please!
Weighing my options, opinions please! Well Ive decided to take the car off the road for the rest of the summer and just worry about bringing it back bigger/stronger/better next summer 
So Im left with deciding what to do. I was considering just freshen up the motor with new bearings and new forged pistons/rings so that I can spray like a 300shot etc.
What all would be needed in order to be able to handle a 300 wet shot of spray or more. I have the nitrous kit, Im interested in what upgrades I would need to the motor for that kind of spray.
Ive got the NX MAF kit, and it can be set up for a dual stage 250+250 shot. So 500hp if I wanted. Mind you Id imagine I would need a fair bit of fuel upgrades for that.
How about a stroker kit, and just get more ponies out of it that way.
Maybe a turbo? Im not really sure which way to go as of yet.
Im pretty sure Im looking for the best bang for the buck. Input would be appreciated, thanks!

Can't speak for the juice but I would definety do the bottom end. New rod and main bearings, forged rods, arp rod bolts, forged pistions, new rings and new cam bearings. Talk with some sponsors for parts, if your going the spray rought try to get as much compression as you can. Top it all off with a good H/C set up.
See sig, I'm shooting for 600rwhp and every one I talked too said the stock crank will handle more than I'm going to throw at it. I'm running a stock crank BTW.

Best bang for the buck IMO is an iron 370. This is just a 6.0 30 over with a stock crank. I think i built mine for a little over 3k. Although i did at main and head studs but i did not include that in my price as that was exstra.
I am going for 650-700rwhp and i am on a stock crank.
