You can always outrun a cop, but you can never outrun the radio.
And most police cruiser mods are geared towards endurance rather than speed (extra coolers for various fluids to survive all-day abuse/idling in the heat, suspension that can take running over curbs all the time, etc). I've never personally seen or heard of a cop car running nitrous, and it wouldn't make much sense (but I guess it's possible). Most urban departments have pretty strict rules on high-speed chases anyways, and rely more on radio support, choppers, and boxing them in with other cars ahead of the route. The idea of a tricked out police corvette trying to literally chase down a street racer is mostly fantasy-land compared to how the real thing unfolds.
