Why?

I've seen nitrous setups to help spool bigger turbos, but I doubt that's the case here.

Meth is mainly a safety feature when you are boosted/spraying, it raises working octane and cools the combustion chamber temps dramatically usually, along with adding more fuel and lowering IATs as well.

Nitrous works well to drop IAT's, but makes the car more prone to knock and greatly increases the cyl temps/pressures. Turn the boost up a little if you are just after more power. Safer that way.

How much power are you running now. If you still have the stock block your probably pretty close to the limit. I wouldn't run nitrous.

If you choose to run meth you would actually need less fuel because you would be burning the alcohol in addition to pump fuel raising the octane thus making it safer to push for higher boost numbers.

However, I would not push a stock block beyond 10 psi IMHO. You would be building a time bomb if you do, but good luck.
