probably a mind game,BUT if there was carbon buildup the nitrous coulda gotten rid of it and made it run better.

that or you gutted the Cat converter and dont know it yet (if you have 1)

you might have swelled your rings and now have closer tolerences because when you use n20 the added heat in the combustion chamber swells the piston and rings well if your rings where wearing down and not sealing there best the n2o might have fixed it for you (temporaly)because after time the swelling will cause ring wear and might score onto the piston
