But I here the best bang for the buck when it comes to horsepower is NOS, and to tell you the truth when it comes to cars I don't know shit. My goal is getting the car to run low 11's or high 10's, I'll also be doing head work in the near future and I would just like to know what I would need to run those numbers.

i have an 01 gts with 20k miles and with only 200 shot nso/propane and filters it made 561rwhp and 736rwtq i removed the cats and it made 586 rwhp and 803rwtq and 1.7 rockers 626 rwhp and 861 rwtq and at the track it ran 10.95@136.97 with a 2.02 60' stock heads and headers and mufflers.
i sprayed 30+ 15lb bottles from it until i had a fuel solinoid fail and when i sprayed it there was no fuel so i noticed something wrong and checked the plugs one gap was closed so i put a new plug in and the very next time i sprayed it the ringland lifted and this time it didnt just hit the plug it hit the valve so i lifted the ring land on 2 pistons (3 and 8)and lost a chunk of #8 but doug levin who is fixing it now said i lost the chunk a long time ago because it was coverd in carbon so to summise i think nitrous is a great power adder but things happen and i beat the crap out of it so it was bound to happen.
on a good note the car now has a fully built bottom end oliver rods good pistons and all other things to get ready for tts it now has jm stage 3 heads and his big n/a cam, headers and full exhast, port matched intake and a 2 stage nitrous system so i can have some fun while saving for the tt maybe i can get some mid 9s now
