so i tried the 150 shot today And guess what! It didn't go kaboom like so many thought it might 
It feels incredible. Still don't think the bottle pressure was high enough, but I'll have that problem sorted out soon with an adjustable bottle pressure heater switch. Afterwards I'll have new dyno numbers.
It pulls pretty good at around 65mph.
It pulls quite firmly at 55 mph
It pulls REALLY hard at 40 mph
And the rear end steps way out at 35 mph.
*All runs shut down around 85*
So it would seem that I have enough traction to go WOT at 40 mph on the nitrous. All of the runs started in 2nd gear and ended a little into 3rd gear. The window switch was doing its job and cutting the nitrous before the shift point. When it hit 3rd gear and the nitrous came back on, it was strong. Since I have a converter, the car doesn't drop out of the powerband like a normal automatic, so the nitrous just magnified the effect of the converter and immediatley began pulling hard again. It sure was fun to try out the 150 shot.
Oh yeah...I had 3 people in the car, so it'd be a tad quicker with just 1.

I hear ya, it really is a great feeling man 
I remember i tried out the 150 with the bottle at like 700psi and i was a little disappointed...cranked it up to 950-975ish and that thing felt completely different.

I've got 315 GS-D3's right now and they hook really well. I cut a 1.87 60' on them at the track, with terrible track prep too, and no VHT. I'll be switching to full blown MT slicks in a couple months.
Cuz i have a lot of miles on my car, and with my car in general.....if something could go wrong...it usually does.
