Heads or Nitrious first?

Yeah I am wondering if I should go with some heads(afrs or etp's) for my 03 Z06 or like a nitrious setup? I currently have the ms3 cam, lt's, cai, ud pulley, short throw shifter, tune. What do you guys think? If I went with the nitro I could get the complete system plus a fast 90 intake manifold and throttle body. Let me know!

I would go with heads and then if you still want the juice you can plumb it in.

Nitrous is practically a bolt on. You already have a cam that accepts nitrous like a long lost brother! Spray it then if you need more N/A go the heads route. A nice 75-150 wet shot would really wake it up!

Do you guys think I would need a clutch with say a 150 shot? I wont be doing hard launches or anything and I will not be on drag radials yet(no traction without them I know).

3 hours that awesome! I have one question though that I am unclear about. When purging the lines, does that use a significant amount of n20?

You'll never have to go get a set of heads filled up on Friday afternoon

, and it's an easy argument that the heads would be a safer option.

I vote heads AND then nitrous!

You ALSO have a good point. 150 > 40RWHP.

truthfully the answer is really up to you. do you want a small kick in the pants or do you want the pants to fall off? heads are always a good upgrade especially on a good cam like you have and as stated they will wkae it up n/a where as the jooooooooossssss is gonna wake it up regardless.
