N20 legal?
Say I were to install a nitrous kit reasonably hidden in my car. Is it illegal to have in a street car?

You need a permit to handle it at all. I think if you have that you are OK to drive around with it as long as it's not hooked up.

I saw that one thread about that in the lounge wasn't sure whether that was to be a dealer/refill station or for personal use.

Personal use.
You get the permit from the dept. of health and senior services.

I think you can transport it but you can't have the bottle hooked up.

It is legal to transport the system fully installed as long as it is not "armed" and you have the permit. Armed = bottle valve open and power going to solenoids.

So if I have a remote bottle opener and hidden switches, there is really no way for them to know 100%?
And this is all assuming I do something incredibly stupid enough to get pulled out of the car and forced into a full car search, street racing would do it.
Which I don't do, but I want to find out the legal jurisdictions of having a N20 system before maybe getting one.

Pretty much. My suggestion would be to keep as much of the system tucked away as possible. Even if you are legal, there is always the possibility of someone seeing something and saying something or you doing something mildly stupid and catch more for it just because that bottle was staring up from the hatch.

Automotive grade nitrous has too much sulfur content. You will throw up before it gets you high. Tim is right on the rules. It can be installed and full as long as its shut off. Also, don't forget the blow down tube and other safety measured required by the nhra. Oh and you need a fire jacket too

Yes, the NHRA requires a jacket for any aftermarket power adder now.
