Good side to N20:
Easy and cheap to setup.
Very affective perforce gain if controlled well.
Cost effective way of doing good quarter mile times and similar short events.

Down side to N20:
Bottles do not last long.
N20 is a very expensive gas.
Puts the same sort of strains on engine as boost.
Same strain on the drive train as well.
You legally have to put safety stickers on you car if its to be fitted on road or track.
You have tell your insurance company if you have a N20 system fitted.
As far as I am aware no one has ever been prosecuted for this but you could potentially get done for tax dodging and using not legal fuels. Though arguably its not a fuel but a oxidising agent.

because its an oxidising agent and your car is not a comercial vehile there is no law in the UK that syas you must have a label, it is a good idea but its not law
the only law that can get you on nitrous is that if you want to use it on the road you must be insured, if your not insured the bottle valve must be off while your moving

Thanks for the clarification on the road regs. I should edit my last post that only when racing you have to lable it then. My bad
