Those who have used superchargers and nitrous, which did you prefer and why?
Just thinking about coverting from nitrous to boost. Unfortunately I never got the motor running right to spray it and now with me having to rebuild the short block to include new pistons, I figured now would be the time if I wanted boost. Thanks

Why not have both
I like the blower as the power is there whenever you want it; just mash on the pedal. I only add the nitrous at the track; it provides extra power and the cooling affect works great with a blown car (and I'm running an aftercooler).

if you are only going to run one i would go with the boost because when the bottle is empty your out of power...the boost is always there.

Nitrous:
Open the bottle valve.
Purge.
Turn the switch on.
Floor it.
Turn the switch off.
Close the bottle valve.
Purge.
Boost:

Well I made a deal with this gentleman here. Tell me what you think

Just not sure if I want to sell the bottle now or keep it around for fun

Everyone is right so far,I use both. Boost is only a right foot away. Nitrous you have to fill.I usually only use the nitrous when I see some one pulling up next to me.You know what they say,run what you brung and hope you brought enough.I usually try and bring enough.

I've run supercharger. I've run nitrous. I've run supercharger+nitrous.
With supercharger, I blew 7 pistons.
With nitrous, I blew 5 pistons and cracked my block.
You pick your poison.

I've used all three and it depends on where it's being used. For track only, forced induction all the way. If it's on the street...gotta be nitrous.
