What would be the cheapest and best bang-for-your-buck super or turbo for a 1978 Ford Mustang II?

I would think a simple nitrous plate kit would be your best option for a power adder....... It would be a lot less fab work and money than either a turbo or blower IMO because i doubt anyone makes a drop in kit for that body mustang. Do some research cuz that is my opinion and have no facts to back it up. Good luck with the project!

I don't think my dad will let me drop nitrous into it. Anything else? I don't need drag level power (yet), just something to put some pep in the step.

Drop in a 429 and be done with it.
