Without more info its hard to say. Is jetted with the right fuel jet? Does it sputter after 5 seconds while still on the shot?

What is the bottle pressure at before and during the run? Sounds like either a clogged screen on the solenoid side or bottle pressure drop. If assembled as per instructions, there is a small screen inside the fitting on the "IN" side of the nitrous solenoid, it tends to get clogged up, especially if there was teflon tape being used, or if the new bottle was not inspected inside for contaminants.
