On the down side, getting bottles refilled can be a bit of a pain. I ended up taking the NOS out and putting a supercharger in, and ended up regretting that move. Yeah, it was nice to have boost always available, but it complicated matters and I started to have reliability issues. In fact, it was such a bad experience that it kinda turned me off from doing FI ever again (unless a car comes from the factory FI). I kinda think putting NOS on the 370Z would be fun though.

I think for some it makes sense. It's an cheap and easy way to make extra horsepower for a straight line run at the drag strip or what have you.
For the track junkies it isn't an option to even have in the car as it is typically banned. I guess you could have the setup and remove the bottle for track days but it's just another complication to getting the car ready for the track.
