its because most nitrous kits are designed to run very rich to prevent detonation. a well tuned nitrous setup won't shoot much, if any, smoke.

Correct a well-tuned nitrous kit with medical grade nitrous and progressive control is UNDETECTABLE... It just moves out like it's got a big engine in it..

Sure you can if you know where to get it from. My boy Manuel used medical grade all the time. The re-fill shop where he gets if from only sells medical grade.

I know alot of guys with Mustangs and just about any other car you can think of that has nitrous and the only way that you can tell alot of times is that a car that is basically stock is alot faster than it is supposed to be, the smell, and owners of the cars that are sometimes overly confident that their car will outrun what ever for a certain amount of money. I have seen some nitrous setups that could anly be detected if you took half the intake apart. It didnt even use a fogger or anything just a small black nylon hose that is invisible at night and day. The hose actaully acted as the jet for a 50 shot.
