i wouldn't do the swap either. you would be surprised once you got started what all that is involved. i have seen some pretty good deals on ebay with power adders that i would do for a six but a swap is way more complicated than you would think. but i do understand the insurance bit

Nitrous won't kill your car any quicker or easier than any other form of power adder. It gets a bad wrap because it is often in the hands of dumbasses. I bet you could very easily shoot a 75 to 100 shot on your car with absolutely no issues.
If you want cheap horsepower, this is the first (and probably only) choice.

If you dont use it properly, yes. If you use it properly, no.

nitrous is safe. its all in the tune. just like Sc and turbos. The tune is important and not talking mail order either.
