Well in either case, you need a built motor to truly have a reliable setup with good power gains (ie. running more than 10 PSI for an extended amount of time). Nitrous is great in that you can have a regular car until you press the button but at the same time, you have a regular car until you press the button.

Well, you can run a turbo with stock internals and make anywhere from 200-230whp and have a reliable engine with a safe tune. However, you can't run nitrous on stock internals without shattering a piston. So, that means you have to get forged pistons just to run nitrous. And even then, you likely won't be able to double the power output of your 4G94 safely like you can with a turbo.

Turbo hands down but if you are doing a full build why not both?
