Nitrous is a great "tool" to find out the weakest link in your engine. Keep cranking up the juice until something breaks. Now replace it and do it again. Makes scrap parts in a hurry.

Hard to resist the button. If I do it, I will limit to a 100 HP shot, for the following reasons:

- more than this and you have prop/RPM problems as described above

- the bottle doesn't last long enough as it is

- I don't want to find the weakest link in my engines

The main reason I would not use nitrous: I spend most of my time cruising, and if I'm spending money on power increases, I want to be able to cruise faster. Part time power can't help me do that.
