Exactly.

I love people who keep telling me to inhale my NOS. Okay, you first but ill laugh after you die from it.

And the bottle exploses b/c of pressure. The bottle is already pressurized and it goes KABOOM. Like Jim90 said, just like a can of soda.

Wow, I'm am actually amazed at all the misinformation in here.
1.)Oxygen is JUST like NOS, as in they are both accelerants, they do not burn themselves.
2.)A properly installed and maintained NOS system will not 'explode' much like the gasoline in your car will not 'explode' if properly maintained.
3.)YES, it caught with NOS by a law enforcement official, it CAN be confiscated, and he WILL call the bomb squad, as they are the ONLY people authorised to carry hazardous materials.
4.)The bottle should NEVER explode, they VENT instead, WAY before the pressure in the tank would ever get high enough to damage the cylinder.
5.)NOS doesn't 'increase' HP all by itself, it is the fact that you have more fuel being burned that causes the additional power.

Probably the same reason that the non turbo Eclipse kept up with the single turbo Rx7. What's that you ask? Its a movie

Wow, i didn't know they would call the bomb squad for NOS. I would have thought they might call the fire department and have the Hazardous material team take it away.
