Ok guys sry its been sO long since ive been on... I missed ya'll, but anyway as most of you know i have a 98 z28 with H,C,I with long tubes and straight pipes... Im looking down the road and i mean a couple of monthes down the road but what should i do next... Obviously a built up tranny... But im wondering should i go turbo or supercharger... I know either one is gonna be pricey but hey thats the cost of speed right. Lol the labor part of it im not to worried about i have a tone of real good gear head friends... I want the most power and torque for the best buck... I dont wanna go super crazy just looking for about 550 to 600... And no Nitrous is not outta the question either... I would love to get as much feedback as possible... Pros and cons, cost wise and liability issues as well... So can ya help me out a lil bit

Thanks,
Brian

Best bang for the buck would be N2O. you could get a wet plate kit for like 7-800$ depending on where you buy from. Turbo or SC would cost about 3-5k just depends on what you really want...im going with a wet plate kit just cause i dont have the money for a Turbo.
