that depends on a lot of things....
would you care to elaborate?
i would say as kit wise-out the box a turbo would be safer but i don't really know anything

either way is safe enough as long as you know what you are doing.

it`s like saying if it is easier to cut a piece of wood with a hand saw or a electric saw. both get the job done .

How much boost/vs how much nitous both tuned or??? Too many variables. Your in boost alot more than you would run nitrous. I would say a turbo adding 50hp and a 50 horse shot of naawwwssss both running proper a/f and timing would be about equal.

turbo with no manegement whatsoever is probably going to last as long as a 200shot dry kit. boost is better though, I don't have to go to get my air filled back up because I used all of it last night.

i hate to go against all of you on this but in terms of out of box bolt ons, I personally like the simplicity of nitrous. the nitrous kits dont require as much research to get to shoot 75 shot, and alot of them are designed for the noob at heart for example Zex.

yup im all about NAAAAAAAAWWWZ!

but we don't buy turbo kits in a box, so that 'out of the box' rule doesn't work. unless we're watching disney chanel with that show 'out of the box' which is off tha chain, they show you all kinds of crazy homemade ----.

if it is daily driven. turbo gives you instant power, punch the gas, hit the right rpm and you got it going. pretty much liek a N/A motor. power is ALWAYS there.

with NNNAAAWWZ i don`t see how you can safely pass that chino driving a v6 camry in front of you.

You could make you rown turbo for the same price you would buy a nitrous oxide kit right? I see nitrous as a cheap quick source of power.
