No but seriously....

If you think that hitting you motor with a burst of hp that's not usually there isn't bad then.... I don't know what to tell you..

Ya sure as long as it's within the capabilities of the engine it will do it. however it is MUCH harder on an engine then progressivly increasing power.

The whole point of vtec cross over points is to pick the point at which the two power curves intersect.. this is so that there is minimal stress on the engine and so there is a smooth transition.

I'm not saying that nitros is all bad I'm merely saying that it's IS easier for your engine to get progressively more powerful like is the case with N/A S/C and Turbo.. Nitros however is a BURST of power that is either there or not... sure you can add it proggressively but as far as I've seen/heard the initial addition of nitros makes a minimum of 50 hp. this is not the biggest kick in the nuts your engine could get but it's a kick none the less.
