If someone spending more money to make their car faster impresses you, once again, you've missed the point, I am always more impressed with a well thought out game plan that works rather than someone dropping their car off at the shop with a blank check and saying call me when it's done. I don't care if it's turbo, supercharger, nitrous, or N/A, if you had nothing to do with the planning and execution, yes the car might be impressive, but you are not. Chance, you are barely seeing a 1/2 second drop from motor to nitrous times, is this because you are too lazy to heat the bottle? Or just scared of the car? If it is the first, just put it in the tub, and run hot water over it for a few minutes, put a blanket over it in the car, and it will be good for the night, this is what I have always done, and I have never had a problem. If it's the latter, I can't wait to be there for your first turbo pass. You are so quick to say that turbos are better than nitrous, but you never used your nitrous kit to it's potential. In my opinion, nitrous is actually easier on your motor because it is only activated for a short time, whereas your turbos will be making boost every time you get on it (I know, you won't get on it all the time 
) Maybe it doesn't sound as cool as a turbo, but I would rather nothing be heard until it's too late anyway. I'm not going to be the guy that drives around popping his BOV, and frankly, that's pretty annoying. I don't know, maybe if all I had to do was ask and I could get a turbo kit, I might have one, but as long as I'm paying the bills, and doing my own work, $4000 to do what I've already done seems like a complete waste of money. If you were paying the bills, you would probably be a little more inclined to make your nitrous kit work too.
actually i write all my own checks and have payed for not only my car (which is payed for) but also every part i have put on it along with my turbo kit with my own money, so thanks for assuming that one boss..... and i will be more than happy to try your engenius NOS warming idea the next time i am at the track so i can run my car at its full proformance.... and just for fun with numbers on my car a turbo makes more sence because on stock internals with T3-T4 hybrides the average hp gain at the WHEELS was 228hp, and i did not get t3-t4 hybirds.......
