Default Got NOS?

Work was kinda slow last night so I had a huge amount of time to wonder about stuff.
One of the things I wondered about was; Nitrous Oxide Seems to be "the magic bullet", but if that is so why isn't it everywhere? I've never heard anybody talk about the cons of squirting.... Surely there are some. Is it that it is very expensive to beef up a motor to handle the extra stress. So much so that it's cheaper to do other things or is it just "bad" for the engine?

Hi Ravskau,
If you don't use it too regularly you'll not have any problem.
I have a Nos kit since 5 years ago and this was already put on
3 Honda and i killed 2 engine...
The reason was that i used the kit any day (about 2-3 bottle/week)because when you have tried this mod you can't
stop using it...THAT'S WHY I DON'T WANT TO PUT THE KIT ON MY S FOR THE MOMENT !!!!

The second problem is that "IT COST A LOT" because the kit
is not really expensive but i paid the N2O GAZ about 10 $/L
then with 2 bottle/week that cost me about 90 $/week.
I don't know how much you pay this gaz in the US but for me in Europe that was a really expensive mod.

I think it is a good solution if you want a standart car for
week use and a dragster for the run during the week end.

That is my own experience.I hope this help.

Mike.
