Default WTF money maker issues......

Not sure if its kit related but...... after a few tests hits it ran like a champ, went to the track, and blew up 2 mafs and an air lid with backfires right from the get go. soon as the kit activated, BOOM. no changes were made to the set up, tune or hard parts. Only difrence was a full bottle. I do not know the bottle PSI as this bottle didn't have a gauge like my other one....... so can too high of bottle pressure cause this? after the first blowup I released some pressure hoping that would solve it. either it didn't or it was still too high.
there is no lag time when it hits, as soon as it hits BOOM. im lost ive checked and rechecked everything, I can put on a new maf and it runs perfect NA I hesitant to put the other bottle on now. I got lucky twice, third time is a charm
I like this kit when it worked but im leaning to going back to a plate kit......IDEAS???

you should definitely get a bottle psi gauge or at least a temp gun. a 90* bottle is roughly 1000psi.
