Ok, what grade are you in? because I'm sorry to say but this is a pretty horrible science fair idea. Much to exspensive, and time consuming, plus there are other concerns as well, such as:
Do you have your own car? Does it have a nitrous system? Do you have any mechanical back ground?

Wait a minute, are we talking Nitrous oxide or Naauuusss here? One is a legitimate performance upgrade, the other is a mythical substance/device that will turn a stock honda civic into a funny car devouring 1/4 mile beast...

In short, nitrous will provide more oxygen to your engine, allowing you to run more fuel, and make more power out of the same volume.
This will put more strain on your engine, and a higher rate of wear. If you use too much nitrous, you could throw a rod, or burn a piston, or blow a headgasket. Unfortunately for your project, it would be very hard to demonstrate this, unless you got an engine and blew it up running too much gas.
