its better for your car than constantly running boost like you would with a supercharger/turbo, with nitrous you are only runningyour engine really hard when you spray
Just because you have a blower doesn't mean that you are running the engine hard. The engine is only running hard when your foot is through the floor board, otherwise, it's just an engine with a lot of air being forced through it.

If that were the case, I wouldn't expect 03 cobra engines to last very long...

You can get a H or X pipe with high flow cats, that way you get the performance gains while making the tree huggers happy.
