It is actually the acronym for nitrous oxide systems, the largest manufacturer of automotive nitrous oxide injection systems out there. It’s become so synonymous with the gas like how Maggi is associated with instant noodles, Colgate is associated with toothpaste, or Nescafe with instant coffee, or how making a photocopy of something is called Xerox-ing. Nitrous oxide’s chemical designator is actually N2O, because it has 2 nitrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
