Did you read thechuckster's post? He covered pretty much everything. Rapid expansion has nothing to do with the power increase provided by N2O.
So much misinformation in this thread! 
Those pics are pretty sobering though. N2O is stored at approximately 800psi from memory, but the defective safety valve let the pressure climb much higher until the cylinder itself eventually failed. The sudden release of that enormous pressure caused a shockwave which tore the car to pieces. Can you imagine what it would have been like if that was a flammable gas, like LPG for example? It probably would have taken out the entire house and half the neighbourhood!
