Just a technical tweak; Nitrous Oxide is N2O. NO2 is Nitrogen Dioxide, a toxic gas.

Nitrous Oxide would be the obvious choice for those looking for "push-button power" for a short period of time, although as with all N2O installations, fueling and tuning are critical to keep the engine in one piece.

Methanol is usually used to cool IAT's in boosted cars, and isn't going to be your first choice for "push-button power".
