I'm inclined to agree with you on this one. I would only consider nitrous if I was staying NA and never going FI. If i was driving with twin snails and a 100 shot I'd be so nervous everytime the engine maybe even the slightest weird sound. Even staying NA, I would spare no expense to make sure the set up was as "bullet-proof" as possible.
I just like the idea of cheap, fast power, but we all know where that road often leads.
