I think it would be important to include how much nitrous you're talking about. I
don't know much, but I think 150 horses from nitrous, on occation, would be better
than 150 from an SC 24/7. If you went w/ a 500 hp shot, of course, somethings gonna
to get bent. (love that saying ever since I saw it on the DML).
Either way, I think both should be safe with proper use and installation.
