What motor plan?

I for the life of me can't decide wiether to do a Twin Turbo setup or a N20 setup. which one will give me more power? the base motor will be around 350-400hp N/A. as far as power adders I know the TT will be more $$ but that isn'ta problem. I'm looking for more power and more streetable. Whats your opinion.

If its going to be driven on the street often, go with N2O.. less stress on the engine when just in traffic.

Two words: boost control.

with n20 you always will have to refill the bottle and it is power on demand BUT so is a turbo, just turn the **** on the boost control and away you go Not expendable like Nitrous Oxide.
Just my 2 cents.

I have to agree w/ dans82. Once the turbo setup is done the power is always there, no refilling bottles. But they both have advantages and disadvantages, and in my opinion when done right are both very cool and reliable. Personally I would go w/ a turbo setup. Just be sure whatever you choose, the engine is built around the power adder.
