Talking Which route should I go? Help me decide!

Ok, I have pretty much every bolton now, except for a stall converter. My birthday is coming up so my parents will help me out with whatever I decide to get. Pretty much, I've narrowed it down to a NX 125 shot, or a Vigilante 3000 stall. My car ran 13.4@103, and I REALLY want to run 12's, but why run high 12s with a stall when I can run low 12's with nitrous? (this is the way I think )

Let me know your opinions...I will only be spraying at the track, not on the street.

Way to gouge the parents

I say N2O, cause its going to make you faster, but also because you'll want to use it on the street after you do it at the track.

If this is your daily driver......I say do the stall and forget about the nitrous.

Well they're obviously not going to spend $800 on me for a converter and tranny cooler, I was saying they'll help me out, maybe go half and half.

then my suggestion still works for you make them pay for half of the most expensive part and then get the less expensive part on your own.
