You need to be more specific.

Both choices have pros and cons. Personally, I have experience with both. My choice, when money is no object, is the S/C. If money is an issue, then nitrous of course. Nitrous is very nice economical way to a lot of HP. It also has very inherent dangers if you don't know what you're doing. S/C puts down good HP numbers, but it very expensive. S/C also doesn't ever run out and you can run "boost" for longer periods of time. Nitrous eventually always runs out, and you can only use it in bursts of 15 secs or less.

As you can see, there are different ways to achieve the same goal. You have to decide if the pros outweigh the cons for you.
