Either one can melt some stuff down, but either one can run all year and never hurt anything, too. Some people have that "win at all cost" mentality. We don't. =)

We can run all year on 600-800hp of nitrous and never replace a part. *shrug*

all depends on the tune. you get greedy with either and you'll end up burning stuff up. try turning up the wick on your boost without adjusting the fuel and see what happens. same thing happens when people try to shove too much nitrous into the chamber without adjusting the fuel appropriately.
