To each his own......Most people that are going really fast use some sort of power adder wether it be nitrous or forced induction. I've been to plenty of races and seen blower cars beat up on nitrous cars and seen nitrous cars beat up on blower cars. Personally my vote is for stroked and blown!

i was just wondering what people think. i would rather be blown. few of my friends have N2O, and swear by it so i didnt know. i have always heard it is harder on the engine that forced air.

Forced Induction and Nitrous can be hard on a motor if not setup correct. I know a bunch of people with superchargers that have had holes in pistons at one time or another.

If you really want to know all about Nitrous Oxide I would recomend the book called, "How to install and use Nitrous Oxide" By Joe Pettitt. Summit sells it for 19 or so bucks.
