Default sc400 with nos.

i have a sc400 right now i am putting new head gaskets on it. i havent got the new head gaskets yet. i was wondering if i run nos or end up getting a turbo should i spend the extra cash and get better gaskets? and as far as nos how much extra power does it has to the v8 sc400 motor??? and how much damage, is it worth it and does anyone here run it?


Thanks Drew

how much power u get out of nitrous oxide depends on how much u inject into the car, the more nitrous u inject the more fuel you need also. so the more u put in the more u get out, but eventually u put too much in for the stock parts to handle and u blow stuff up. and if you are gonna do a turbo real soon then sure why not get the gaskets, it will save u time by doing it now insted of doing it later
