Nitrous. wet systems are so easy.

Tap into you fuel line, t it off
run t into fuel solenoid

bottle mounted in trunk
run nitrous line to nitrous solenoid

run fuel line and nitrous line off of corresponding soleoinds into your fogger
put 50-75hp jets in

run your neg and pos wires from the solenoids to a 12v switch, run wires from the switch to the battery. Flip the switch for go fast

a kit runs about 300-400 bucks and come in carbed, efi, and specific 4cyl applications.

I could build a crude turbo system with 500 bucks, N2O is crappy, you have to run often to fill the tank and thats not very cheap on the long run. Plus you still risk engine damage if you dont know what you're doing.

Turbo ftw if your looking for easy power

i doubt you could build a turbo kit for 500 bucks. Not one that will last and make power anyway.

Nitrous is so easy. it gets a bad rap because people constantly hit the go fast and put 100hp jets in their stock honda civic. well duh, its gonna blow.

Sure you could, if you have a welder and don't buy a BRAND new turbo, you can hit the wreckers up. Just think of all the modded cars that get in accidents
