Power for what? I don't see anyone spraying NOS to help pull a trailer up a hill

Still turbo or maybe a procharger.

A TVS or whipple would be instant power when you want it and the correct turbo setup can increase engine efficiency as well as provide super fast spool up with the right size turbo. A procharger would build power as rpm rise.

NOS is pretty cool and will be just there on demand like you want it. Up here the prices are pretty crazy for a small bottle fill so it's something I wouldn't want.

I just putt around in mine 99% of the time because its my daily work truck. Only thing I regret is I didn't do it sooner. So much torque instantly anytime...or not. I love it.
