nitrous oxide or N2O is injected into the air intake to increase power. When N2O reaches a certain temperature, it breaks down and releases extra oxygen. Secondly, when the liquid in the tank vaporizes, it comes out extremely cold. The combination of these two effects allows you to cram a lot more oxygen into your cylinders. This extra oxygen creates additional power by allowing more fuel to be burned.
like said above, there isn't really way to make your car more nitrous ready. Like everyone said above if you shoot it at WOT (wide open throttle) and use it sparingly you should be fine. The trouble is, and I can tell you this from personal experiance, is that no matter how safe and how careful you think you will be. As soon as you get your first taste of n20, you'll find yourself using it quite a bit more often then you should.
