Does NOS really hurt you engine?

I seen an article on one of the nos kits for are mustangs, how bad is it really for your car? I don't know much about it, but the power gains seem to be really good. If I did it I would only want like 75 hp shot, any one that has it or knows more about it chime in

power gains are impressive, downside is having to fill the bottle

no ... "NITROUS" does not hurt your engine. Retarded people that slap it on and dont know how to tune it hurt your engine.

75 shot very not worth it imho. Get a full exhaust, tune, CAI, and some suspension. Will be cheaper and close to the minimal gains from a 75 shot.

75 shot knocked about 1/2 second off my et's, +5/6 MPH in the 1/4.Lots of fun to play with, and you will notice a nice little jump in performance.

my point was that a 75 shot is not worth it. Up that to a 125-150, knock 1+ sec off your 1/4 for the same price.
