No, my objection to the turbo vs. nitrous comparison (with respect to my cars) is the fact nitrous oxide is an add on, my cars came factory with a turbocharger. That's an apples to oranges comparison is all.
As far as the boost, my GN is still at factory 15psi. My TTA was upped from 16.5 factory to it's present 20lbs. The adjustable wastegate actuator was factory also.
I suppose my point is that N02 is like strapping 1000 Estes rocket engines on the back of your car and lighting them for a run, then having to go to the hobby shop to get more to make a fast run. Without them you can't make a decent go...
