this by itself makes up to 55 for $900 and it only sprays when your at open throttle so seems like a good buy for cheap power and still keeping your MPG

doubt it. nobody has even made 200whp with the turbo setups (other than skunk2) so why? boost + nitrous=alot of cylinder pressures which isn't to nice to stock pistons.

I had nitrous for awhile. Not this kit, but the generic import kit. Worked as you'd expect, but it eventually loaded up my intake manifold with fuel when the nozzle slipped and blew the living FU@K out of my engine bay. Turned my intake plenum into a BOMB LOL.

After a new IM and some massaging to my ego all was well, and I went turbo.

Believe it or not, turbo is a LOT safer than nitrous. Even if it is always there, you don't have the possibility of an intake bomb.

Nitrous is cheaper, though. Ask me if I'll ever run nitrous again.

EDIT -- the answer is NO!
