UPDATE

I got the bottle filled.

I'm currently jetting for a 65 shot.

I roll raced my friend's Ford Taurus with a DOHC V6 (210hp?)

Without nitrous we are pretty much dead even.

We ran from about 55-60mph on. Bottle pressure at 675ish PSI. I gave him about a 2.5 second head start. By the time I hit the gas he had a three car lead and opening quickly.

I reeled him in HARD and ripped by him by the time I hit 80. I was easily doing 20 mph more.

The car was really bogging down though cause the pressure was only 675 so that's it.

We all went back to his place with a bunch of people and played strip poker n ****. I took my bottle inside and left it on top of the furnace to heat up.

By the time I left the bottle was warm to the touch. I hooked it up and read 975PSI

Took it out on the highway and punched it going 50mph. I hit 80 in only about 2 seconds. Car pulls like a ******* steroid induced animal!

Jeffreickonyaa wants to run me tomorrow with his stock ss/sc to see how we compare. On 700psi he said my car feels about the same as his ss/sc.
