.

I would KISS, pick one, and see what you can get out of it.
I'm definitely not an expert, but N2O worked excellent on a couple of my friends that tried it on a boosted combo.
Even tiny 50-100 hits gave some amazing gains on blower cars.

Meth is kind of pointless as a twin with nitrous. Nitrous cools the intake charge enough on its own.

Depends on what Mix your running and what the goals are. 70/30 is going to have less benefits as the cooling will be less pronounced once the nitrous is spraying. But it still going to raise the effective octane of the mix slightly and also will make the combination less sensitive to detonation.

100% meth will certianly help, mostly because of the octane added to the mix.

Both require tuning and do add some variables to the tuning but nothing too difficult. If you have, tell the tuner your working with and see how he would like to go about it.

Why don't you give me a shout here at the shop? 254-848-4300

Lots of variables on how you want it set up exactly. A lot of it is based on how your tuning and who is doing it. I would like to go over everything in the combo if you have time.
