i was taking my girlfriend home and i pulled up at a light in the middle lane. to the left is a GS400 and on the right is a neon with a huge wing - commando style, about 20 gauges on his dash, a monster tach, and a nice NOS sticker. i was thinking either this guy is really fast or super riceboy. so i give both of them some revs. it was funny how they both turned and looked at me at the same time and revved back. light turns green, and the GS400 jumps me out of the hole and gets a car on me. at the end of first gear i've caught up 1/2 a car, and by the end of second i have a car on him. after this he slams on the brakes and makes a u-turn. i wasn't paying attention to the neon so i don't know how he did, but he gets up beside me going about 40 and wants to go again. so i turn off the nitrous(yes i sprayed the GS400) and i let him jump me. through the rest of second gear i walked him, pretty slowly though - that's what surprised me. and it took most of third gear before i got a car on him. so i suppose it was pretty fast for a neon. anyway, that was my entertainment for tonight.

So I guess it's safe to say:
Jim W. = 75 shots of NOS

you can get a NOS EFI dry kit for anywhere between $400 to $500. my system isn't computer controlled, it's just on a full throttle switch and a window switch.
