Nitrous Kits - Pros and Cons?

OK, ofcourse I'd rather have a supercharger or turbo but unfortunately thats not in my budget at the moment. I've always kinda been against the spray kinda like its juicing (aka Mark McQuire/Sammy Sosa) but the more I think about my driving habits it kinda makes more sense to throw a bottle in the trunk.

I really don't need continuous 500 hp at the wheels (of course I want it) cause most of my driving is normal daily driving around and cruising. And yes, I get on the car but not really in a way where I am punching it out through all the gears.

But, in those rare instances that I do need that power (and I need not state what instances those are...hehe) I'd like to have an extra 100-150 horsepower available at the flip of a switch.

Just curious as to the pros and cons of the stuff. (LOL...will my balls shrink?)

Also, how do you use it. I dont want a system that is on when I do punch it (ie a switch under the accelerator pedal). Is it on as long as a button is pushed. Do you use it thru all gears? Let off between shifts?

Anyone with it or has had it could you guys let me know.

Also, do I need to do a tune, how much boost is safe etc. (I have a corsa cat back and cai already)
