OK. This is a beginner question for the Nitrous users. I have been using alcohol for many years and lately I have been watching too much of the Fast and Furious movies. I know Nitrous will cool the air charge, add oxygen and assist spooling. Alcohol cools the charge and adds octane. I am not asking about using Nitrous to spool the turbo then turning it off. I am curious how Nitrous stands up against alcohol at WOT. Why is it so big with the imports? Why purchase Nitrous when alcohol can be used? If, I had two stock 3.8 motors. One on Nitrous and the other on alky would one produce more power than the other turning the boost up as far as possible before detonation. I guess my big question is if both motors were pushed as far as they could go, which would come out the winner and by how much? Please explain why.
