Default nitrous or ls v-tec?

I was thinking about getting my nitrous kit, it's only a 50 shot. although i want my teg to have v-tec, if that should i get a GSR head or B16 head, i know i need the ecu..or do i ?

which is more reliable for my daily driver? which do you think will add more power ?

a ls can take a good 75 shot safely with minor fuel upgrades, to be safe, colder plugs etc. Nitrous would be more reliable especially if u use a 50 shot cause u wont be on the bottle all the time just a few instances when u wanna put down an ass wooping.

idk like the ls vtec cause if not built correctly it can lead to alot of problems. I heard very good things about ls vtec but i dont like it though

I would rather go boost instead, but thats just me. Im thinkin about the nitrous idea too keep my speed frenzy under control while i build my ls block

its more than just putting a vtec head on a b18 block, i say nitrous, because saying "v-tec" proves you shouldnt be doing internal work on your motor

ls vtec turbo. talk about some serious power. at 12lbs daily driven tires break loose at 5500 rpms when vtec and boost at putting it down. 308 whp on the street 406 whp on the track. scary fast. lotta $, time, but damn its worth it.

reliable people ls vtec is to risky.

i would just spray it to be reliable

If u want reliable just get a intake, exhaust, port n polish, 50 shot, gsr tranny,

thats really reliable right there u would be quicker than stock but u wont hang with the big boys,

after all this is ur daily driver, and im guessing downtime will have negative affects
