Headers are far more reliable...

Been around it long enough not to buy into the un-reliable hype. Ive seen anything from 100000 miles with better than a hundred bottles trough it to Hey hold my beer while I hit the switch while we are running 140 Ya so it was fun until the bottom came out LMAO. Anyway Im not scared of the gas if it is used with some kind of sence

Im kinda suprised so far. I figured Nitrous would be close at least. Chim in how many that voted have experience with nitrous or headers for that matter and give a reason for your choices. Thanks,

ETA: I voted bottle but might go another direction. Just wanted to see everyones thoughts.

LT's are easy HP. With the bottle you have to refill it from time to time, plus the upkeep of the plumbing not to mention the tune to get the most out of it.

Yep. You lose trunk space. You have to constantly refill the bottle. If tuned improperly your engine could blow. LT headers would be plug-and-play. Enjoy the additional HP and exhaust note! However, has anyone seen real world dyno results comparing the stock headers with LT headers? The gains might be minimal. I would do CAI and tune before headers.

CAI and tune are in the hat. Just thinking of the third and final for awhile power mod. And wanted to do all at the pretty much the same time. No lose in trunk space here though if the bottle is what I go with.....I have no back seat as it is lol.
