Well you did list it from most expensive to least expensive. And you're gonna get $hit for calling it NOS, it's nitrous.

My opinion: TT will give you the most power and most people would probably get TT if they can afford it. Then they would say Procharger or KB depending on what kinda SC you want to get. I personally would choose KB over a TT.

for the money, a KB is cheaper than a turbo and gets almost as much power to the wheels for the same boost (almost...not quite though). Nitrous is the cheapest and easiest and makes more power dollar for dollar.

If you're on a budget and you can't afford a blower or you just don't want to drive around with the extra power all the time, then nitrous is the winner since you can shut it off and be effectively stock. When you go to the track and you want to slap down better times, then nitrous is quick and easy to flip on and bottles are cheap to fill.

For the money... I'd do a PI swap and nitrous. You'll have lots more power from the better heads/cam/intake from the PI stuff and then there's the nitrous still available for even more power when you need it.

What are you trying to get out of the car? Before doing anything Id get yourself some PI heads and cams, or even better some ported PI heads from VT, miles per hour, Steen Racing, or Fox lake with some custom cams or VT stage 1 or 2 cams.
