    Cheapest front mount I've seen was around 2200-2500.

    Remember you can get a Turbo kit for 3k but the supporting mods will cost you far more.

    Refilling a bottle every weekend adds up... if you do it once every two weeks, that's around1000$ a year. A good nitrous kit is going to run you 500-600... it all adds up.

    Thats hopeful thinking! lol id double that at least, prices keep going up and up so your going to have a big chunk of what a good starter turbo kit will cost in an invisible gas

    N20 up here is 5.50 per pound. I can see how it adds up quick.

    4.10 a lb here . 12s without some help are far fetched hopes. Stall, gears, longtubes, and a 150 shot might get you there. I'd ditch the tb spacer and atleast get a nossle in the intake. Give you a little
    Safety. These guys make nitrous sound so bad. I ran it for years and was happy. The failures I had where my fault not the nitrous or kit. I run boost now and make more power than I ever have. But the bottle was more fun to me. Each to his own

    Nitrous is not the cheap answer, between the kits that ive bought and bottle fills I could have a nice front mount kit. But I love nitrous and will always run it. Yes you can buy a little cheap kit to get you started, but the more nitrous you spray the better kit youre gonna need.
