Uhhhh...

Mad Max also was driving a Australian Ford with a "Toggle Switch" blower
system. And then there was the bald, ugly dude ("The Humongous") who had
the Nitrous system that engaged when he manually turned the bottle on...by

Nitrous - Bad for motor if you play around with the settings too much (still
the best bang for the buck)
Turbo - (hehehe...no arguments there with ya)
Supercharger - Accept No Substitutes
