And your saying that nitros is better than turbo because you can launch and then hit the juice... well that's kindof what a turbo does anyway.<-- no i say its better because its cheaper
Juice is great and all but certainly not better than a turbo...
Spool up time is only an issue in first gear and only if you don't launch above 2-3k. Plus the power on a turbo doesn't have to be progessive... if your running 12 psi max your spooled to that at like 3500-4000 rpm so your "hundred hp 500 rpm before redline" is WAY off. first off your talking about 100 hp easy at 4k if you spool over 12 then your talking about 100hp at 4k and anywhere from 120-300 hp by about 6k max.<-- show me a kit that adds 300 hp at 6k rpmsadn there are SO many othe rfactors you have NOT accounted for... tranny gearing beign the biggest spool up time is ALWAYS an issue, it CAN be controled through turbo size and tranny gearing, also cam profile, and cam adjustability
Buy a bottle and you gotta get it filled everytime you want to use it. You don't have any of that power off the track (unless your a rich moron and run nitros on the street.)<-- you obviously do not have nitrous or you would not make such a silly statement....
As far as launch traction there are WAY more options to control turbo power then there are for nos. <--- WRONG.. there are just as many or more for nitrous.. there are timed, geared adn progresive nitrous controllers as well as dual stage systems.
Say you do hit the button as soon as you hook up.. well what if you loose traction as soon as you hit it.<--- i launch with juice..ALWAYS.. and its fine MINIMAL traction issues with radials.. NO traction issues with slicks
nitros is on or off... a turbo adds it's power WAY more smoothly than nitros.<-- i daily drive my car and prefer nitrous for that EXACT reason.. i have NO interest in driving around putting unnecisary wear on my motor due to daily commute, i can simply turn my power adder off till i need it... turbos and S/C are always on.. ALWAYS wearign away at the motor.. this is not appealing to me since my car is a daily driver
