What would be more beneficial for the ST buying the turbo kits they sell for the corollas and do minor custom work for fitment or hooking up a 75 wet shot of nitrous. If the internals where upgraded slightly basically the stronger rods they sell for the st because I dont think there are any pistons unless you go custom and a p&p and some other things to make the motor able to take the stress.

Yeah it's the computer controlled systems that I listed, Venom has been a successful system that's why I would sway more towards it. Also remeber these are Wet systems so yes you can spray at any throttle position since the fuel is being added through an auxillary injector. The NXT is a neat system but they are limited to their applications and are a direct port fogger system good for 25-75hp on 4 cylider applications, they also replace your intake manifold. The cost are still around $1,200 and you are limited to what the program options are, but if you want that supercharged feel and don't have $3,000 laying around it would be a good thing. I also think that the Venom system uses the O2 sensor to tell if you're running lean and automatically kills the nitrous if you hit to high of a temp. or go to lean. As with all nitrous systems the main draw back is refills and last time I checked they were $40 but that was a couple of years ago. If you're building the motor up then I would go for one of these systems, nitrous gets a bad rep because of people that get the dry systems and misuse them, of course your motor will blow if you run a 125 shot on a 4 banger with no reinforcement and spray until the redline. Also these systems will allow you to set RPM stages so you could have the nitrous come on at 25hp at 2000 RPM and shut off at 75hp at 5500 RPM giving you a nice boost and not having to worry about redlining with the nitrous on, rule of thumb is the nitrous needs to be shut off 200-300 RPMs before the redline or rev limiter.
