It was a nitrous express new nozzle system adjustable up to 600 hp. I currently had the 200 jets in it running fine. I think that a nos noid got stuck open running the power straight thru melting a wire keeping it active and then filled the motor with nos and 116 octane fuel and must of found a spark and boom.
