Im a indecisive person

So I am at a cross roads on how I want to make more power in my truck. Option are

1. Keep cam in truck throw in the 4.56 gears I just bought and add nitrous, since cam is good duration for nitrous.

2. Keep cam in truck for now, return gears and build rear mount turbo system. I can do this for about 1500.00 since I have some stuff laying around. Looking at the turbontetics 10984. If it doesnt run like good with this cam take it out sell and put stock back in. This would be keeping my current 2800 stall and 3.42 gears.

3. Throw in the gears and save up for a TVS1900

Sorta leaning towards the turbo since i dont have to refill and my Highway RPMS would stay low with the 3.42

Its not ideal but it should work just fine. Go turbo. I went the nitrous route the first time and I loved it but it got old filling bottles and only having the power when I was spraying. Sold the kit, built a turbo setup and I will never build a performance vehicle again without going turbo

Do y'all think I should keep the 4.56 gears to help with the weight of the truck even with the turbo?

Not IMO. Most guys with turbos run higher gears FWIW. I would think nothing lower than 3.73, but I do not know that much.

I wanna see your build cost sheet if you do make a turbo kit for 1500 lol hope you got a pretty good stash of parts already!!!

I vote turbo only cuz you can only pulley down so small
