You can use nodeenv to install multiple node versions side by side. It works like python's virtualenv (in fact it's a direct copy!). So you source $ENV/bin/activate to set up all your paths, and run a function called deactivate to reset everything.
It's great for trying out new node versions or if you have multiple apps on different versions of node. I have several versions installed in $HOME/local/nodejs and I have one symlinked as $HOME/local/nodejs/default, which I source from my .zshrc.

Haven't done this before. Just install n or nvm in case you don't mind both versions on your machine simultaneously. Have found it useful when different apps have different version requirements.
