While there is a risk in using N20, if you set it up properly it's no worse than a turbo. I don't know how much trouble it is to tune, but since N20 + SC/Turbo is a common combo on many domestics and high-end imports, I think there are enough people out there who can do it.
Hmm... but with all that extra power going through, maybe investing in a block guard is a good idea? =/

Where are you getting your info from? What do you think the block guard is going to do? I'm not trying to attack you, I'm just curious where you get these ideas from.
There are enough people safely running 8lbs on a stock head that I would feel it safe and in fact will be in a couple of months when I swap out my current stuff into my base so I can change the fuel system.
As long as the fuel is tuned, you should be fine. I would invest in a J&S safeguard, but with that and correct fuel it would be safe. I would realy say though that it makes much more sense to run 7-8lbs alone instead of 5+NOS, just for simplicity sake alone, plus your spending all the money on the turbo, why not use it and not deal with having the cost of NOS refils, plus your runs and stuff would be more consistent I would imagine, atleast at first since you can learn on the setup more of the time.
