Very good point but in another thread I mention how the 1g NA 2.0L 4g63 motor is very similar to a 4g63turbo motor. In this instance where the headgasket might be the next weakest link due to the stock higher compression pistons it almost seems natural for it to breathe nitrous rather than pushing the motor with a heavier turbo setup that can run limited boost, anyway.

So my point is that certain motors might do better with a certain setup. Of course, filling a nitrous bottle can be pricey over the long haul and is still cumbersome but on the other hand it is easily upgradeable and or portable if you want to swap it to the next car.

And Igo4BMX, you will be surprised how often I've actually heard people serioulsy say that.
