Actually...The MANUFACTURER'S claim that there is no performance difference; if you ask any serious nitrous racer they'll tell you differently. I CAN tell the difference between Nytrous Plus and medical grade. The 1 PPM of sulpher dioxide shouldn't make a difference but the medical stuff 'hits' harder. In addition the plugs are much easier to read than with Nytrous Plus. Medical grade is also A LOT cheaper, believe it or not, but NO gas supplier will sell med-grade to anyone that does not have a clinical license.

Before they started putting sulphur in it my friend found his little brother in the garage dead with a tube in his mouth from him sucking on the nitous. Atleast one good thing about N2OS is it won't let this happen again which is good now that so many young people are using it in their cars.
