I think it was CF that had a good article yor you. They had stages and how much each cost and the increase in power. The first stage was the usual intake and exhaust upgrades. I think the budget was 1500. After that it gets expensive and the power goes up w/rpms. Start w/cold air intake and a chip. JMHO

I am sure it would, just got to be careful not to leave any tell tale marks. Are you on the list to go to the Peterson museum gathering on the 17th. :chevy

it would only void the warrenty if they could prove damage was done by the mod. so if your engine blows up and they look at the pistons, your busted. but if your tach stops working, they have to fix that because there is no evidence that nitrous has to do with that.

Nitrous leaves sulphites in the engine: suspended in the oil as combustion by-products. An oil analysis can reveal a telltale chemical fingerprint of having used nitrous, no matter how well you remove the hardware prior to the trip to the dealership shop.

Why not the ram Air type deal,I'm not sure where you could get it from but I know it can be bought. It just mounts next to the lights which can feed the cool air to the engine.
