Didn't want to post this before.
Pull your plugs. Note what brand and heat range the plugs are. Number each plug to the proper cylinder and READ each of the plugs. If you have any problem reading the plugs take pictures of each one and post them here.

Good news is if the NOS was applied correctly. And it may well have been , there will be no problem.

you'd be surprised by the people i've seen spray their low mileage cars.

but with that "key" switch i'm going to assume it's an alarm, honestly i'd prefer it to be spray. those after market alarms can be hell

i agree...it is most probably an alarm system, but you will want to find out either way. Hell, if that NOS system is still in there it could be a ton of fun. There seems to be two switches and 4 lights. I'd be real curios what each light meant. Could it be a dual stage NOS system 9two (red LED's) system powered (white light) system spraying (green light). I am just guessing. Most alarms don't have all those lights. Is there a shift light on it somewhere? I once saw a kit that puts a little shift light in you air conditioning vent above the radio.

it would have to be a really small bottle to still be hidden.
