STOP BENCH RACING!!!!!!!!!!! Numbers that magazines post do not mean shit. If some kid at your local track got a new mustang GT and runs 9.6's and it's a 5 speed, he can't drive or his car is fucked up, end of that, no arguing. With that said, I the nitrous over turbo thing is strictly preference. BUT a kid in my town just turbo'd his '99 eclipse with a hahn stage 2 and I can keep up with him easily WITHOUT nitrous. With nitrous I'd hand him his ass so bad it would be an embarrassment. Keep your $3K unless you have another $2k on top of that to build your motor and make your car bad ass like strauss or something.
