Personally, all you people can say good things about having Nitrous and how its not gonna hurt my Motor, but in the end, in the back of my mind I say it does.

Unless someone can prove to me with a Compression test, or some sort of test, im selling my bottle.

I really wanna put it on my car though, would be nice to have that extra power.
Stress is stress whether it be nitrous, supercharging or turbocharging. Any time extra pressure is introduced into a cylinder, more stress is involved.

From the sounds of it, I think you would be better off going N/A. Get a good race header like the Buddy Club or Vibrant, a HFC, and a good cat back exhaust. Find a good CAI and get the Hondata.
