Which would be a better option?

I searched and found nothing that answers my question directly. I also read the stickies in Nitrous and T/C S/C forums.

Which would be a better option? Custom turbo set-up or Nitrous? Cost is a little bit of an issue. I drive an 01 with 80k miles. It's an automatic. It's also my daily driver. I'm leaning towards nitrous, but would like some other peoples opinions.

You've answered your own question.

Nitrous costs less and the car will have less "down time" compared to if you had a S/C or T/C set-up. It also depends on how much of the maintenence, tuning, installation, etc that you can handle to keep it running right.
