Pissed on a 3000GT I don't know if it was a VR4 or not. Honestly, I don't care because it wouldn't have made a bit of difference. A buddy of mine helped me finish up wiring the nitrous kit and a ~17yo guy and his buddies were my test dummies...
I was on the way to the gym and of course I had the bottle open and the heater on...1000psi. I saw a 3000GT with some fart pipes so I figured I'd put out a little bait (revs) to see if he'd bite. He didn't go right away so I shifted to 4th and started messing with the radio. He then punched it and I fumbled for 2nd gear. I found it from about a 45mph roll after the guy had around a 2 car length lead on me.
I shot past him like he was standing still. The blower was whining like a **** on the 50shot. I wound out 3rd gear to 6,000rpm (in a 45mph zone - no traffic
) so I hammered the brakes and he kind of flew past me. He slowed down and I caught up to him to chat for a second. Before I could catch up he threw a big thumbs up out the window. 
I reciprocated. The first thing he said when I caught back up was "that ******* supercharger blew me away!" 
I told him I was testing out a new nitrous kit too. He had a few of his homies with him to witness the *** whipping.
Cool guys, good test dummies, fun race. The end.

I was going to spray it anyway just to make sure everything was in order. Might as well have a little target practice and show some kids that 13-14 second cars really aren't fast no matter what they see in the movies. 
Got Me SOM - Have you been to the track yet with the blower?

This isn't a kill but a funny littel sidebar...
On the way home from the gym I ran into a guy with a badass black C5 'vert. It was super clean...beautiful car. I was driving next to a friend of mine and the C5 was in the left lane. He didn't give me the time of day so I dumped her into second and went WOT. You guys need to hear this car. It's ******* LOUD especially on the hose. I slowed back down and I asked the guy in the C5 if he wanted to run 'em. He was all smiles and said "Nooooooooo ******* waaaaaayyyyy!"
Jon - Take note of this story. Go buy yourself a Cobra!!!

Unit, what kind of mods do you have on the cobra. I am helping my best friend do his 03. So far we have done the Steeda Cold air intake, Bassani catback exhaust, and QA-1 adjustable shocks, and he got 413 rwhp. Track times suck, car just will not hook up. (Goodyear F-1's)
We have the Bassani headers, cats, X-pipe and Diablo programmer waiting to go in. I think he will see 500 rwhp, but he thinks only like 450.

He won't even see 425rwhp without a pulley and the only way to hit 500rwhp without a blower swap is to have the Eaton ported. Headers do nothing on these cars until 600rwhp or so.

Nice test kill Unit ! Sorry to hijack but I've never seen so many Stealths/3000GT's out this year, they must be making a come back. I was on my way home from the GF's at about 3 am this morning and a new BMW 330xi and a Mitsu 3000GT pulled up next to me near the light to turn left to get on the highway. They both tried to get the jump to get to the off-ramp and I had to show them what the Grandpa car had. Needless to say, the BMW stayed behind me until his on-ramp and the 3000GT eventually crept by after about 10 miles and exited.
