turbo + nitrous?

Is it a good idea? What would I have to do to add a nitrous kit along with a turbo and not blow my engine? Any ideas?

For starters, some sort of tuning device (ie Emanage Ultimate) along with a really good tune.

Why shoot for the stars right off the bat? That's asking for trouble IMO. Plan your turbo setup, purchase parts, install, tune, enjoy. Then go from there.

How do I do water/meth? I'm pretty new to major upgrades so I need as much help as possible, also what exactly does it do? And honestly I prolly won't go with nitrous,I was just curious cause raced a camero running nitrous and lost bad lol

The fact that your asking means that you should NOT use nitrous if your boosted till you have a bit more knowledge. I recommend you go through the nitrous section and turbo section, and use the search feature for all your answers. They have all been answered many times.

But quick cliff notes,
Turbo + Nitrous is amazing, instant spool up and boost once you spray, this means tuning has to be perfect. Methanol/water injection, cools the combustion and also adds octane, which helps prevent engine knock.
