Very VERY true...But also couldn't anywhere near 250rwhp
But yea, my build is definately not for everyone. My only real point in this was to see exactly how far I could take the stock crank, rods, and pistons(rods went away on a 175 shot). To get the equivalent hp from a turbo or supercharger setup, it would have cost significantly more.
As long as your engine is sound and running strong, I say go for the nitrous. Get a kit from a reputable brand with all of the bells, whistles, and safety features you want. Make sure you have a good install, rather you do it yourself, or have a pro do it, and you'll be set.
