The N20 will give you better times at the track. Dont worry about blowing your **** up unless you dont want to pay the $$ to get it tuned. The headers and cam will give you added power all of the time. Do both.

With a Dry 100 shot, the chances of you blowing up a motor is slim to none, the weak link will be the transmission, be sure to get a window switch to turn off the nitrous before the tranny shifts, and turn it back on once it shifts

I suggest hitting a dyno to check your a/f b4 you start spraying your way to work everyday. 100 dry shot is safe I know guys that have been doing it for years on daily drivers.
