Dude, I had the EXACT same post like 1 week ago cause I am going through the same dilema....seach for my name under who started the post and search for pi swap or something...it should come up, a lot of people responded
I did the headswap and am adding a 125 shot here right away. In some ways i wish i would have just gone s/c to begin with but i like the idea of being able to use my bottle just for the track and then keep the reliability of my N/A engine for the street.
I am glad I did the head swap and some bottom-end work. I like getting the most out of my car naturally aspirated. The only thing I will suggest it to get after market cams while you are at it...if finances permits.
And for those very rare days that I actually go to the track, the 100 NX wet shot is more than enough to give me a satisfying E.T.
Some people say that the increase compression with PI heads is not good for Forced Induction. But if you know you want to S/C later, just change out to different pistons while doing the swap to reduce the compression.

If you can afford race gas high compression and forced induction go hand in hand to a point.
Last winter I did the headswap and this spring I will be sporting VT stage ones and a 150 wet shot and of course a good tune. Its up to your wallet really. The initial cost of nitrous is cheaper but in the long run a blower will out run the cost of filling the bottles. Its all up to you.
