Question methanol or nitrous?

Alright guys, heres whats up. When i bought my car last year i decided that i wanted to make it a 10sec daily driver. I have run 11s so far. My buddy has an 04 cobra with the same mods except he has borla exhaust, a ported eaton and he's running Nitrous. He dynoed out at over 600rwhp. i have planned on doing the same thing, and as of yesterday, i now have a ported eaton. My next step was nitrous but i have been hearing about methanol injection offered by snow performance. What do you all think i should run? A 75 shot of Nitrous or methanol? Remember, this is my daily driver and i want to run what is best for my car. ( im sure either is good for the motor.) My cobra motor is stock except for the diamond pistons.
thanks

I would stay away from the methanol. It can cause problems with corrosion of fuel system and internal engine parts depending on the amount used. In addition, you won't see much of a power gain however it may help to suppress a little detonation. Methanol is not an oxygen bearing fuel as nitrous is. You'll get a lot more power gain with a decent nitrous setup.
