Default Nitrous or turbo? Help

Ok here the situation with my car(2000 eclipse gt), its got 119000 miles but runs beautifully, all oils changed routinely. Now im in college and am looking to invest some speed into my ride, should i go with the nitrous or a cheap turbo? Now keeping in mind ill probably have to pay labor to put in either one can anyone give me an estimate for each and which path would you suggest. i do realize that with the nitrous ill probably need new pistons, will i need anything else, i always heard nitrous wasnt good for your car at al is this true? THANKS

Neither is good for the longetivity of the motor. Like I always say bottles are for babys real men get blown.

Well since your going to pay for the labor go w/ the spray. Just like slow420a said bottles are for babies and real men get blown. Take the time and learn how a turbo system works and install it yourself.

N2o will kill the motor faster than a turbo. and there is no such thing as a cheap turbo kit for that car. They go about $4500 and make 320WHP
