I am going to mount a pressure gauge on the bottle and get a bottle warmer. Just for kicks I revved the engine to 3000 and manually hit the switch and the rpm didn't really jump up. They did climb but not like I thought. That was on that cool evening with the low bottle pressure. A bottle with two passes on it by the way. I figured I should be able to gain more than 5 mph with a 150 shot. I went from 99 to 104. Not using slicks on the 99 mph pass either
