Caution: Nitrous is a great way to find the weak spots in an engine!
That instant hit of laughing gas causes a massive increase in internal
strees. If your engine isn't in top condition, you'll find the weak
components real fast! Fractured rods, holed out pistons, and busted
bearing caps are not an unusual result of to much nitrous in an ill
prepared motor.
