No idea what happened mate. they did 7 runs all in and last 6 were all within 1-2bhp. First run it did 230bhp and 370lb/ft which is 60bhp and 120lb/ft over standard. Think it just overboosted but they couldnt find any data on our engine code so not sure what went wrong. They were worried that it had been mapped, but its completely standard.

they were looking at the inlet yeah but deffo wasnt a leak, with the torque it produced it was a definate overboost. All the other runs were fine tho so not sure what happened. It will be getting looked at soon tho as it should be getting mapped, depending on what it will do to the clutch. Need to get some owners/expert advice on it as dont want the clutch going bang after its mapped.

Astra van with N2O http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9oBMG2ARCjc
10 whole bhp? i thought the minimum shot was 25brake
It was a dry kit which only squirts in the N20 to use the rest of the unused fuel, your thinking of a wet kit which does squirt extra fuel and the N20

caused huge tailbacks and the bloke was sitting inside the car on the phone
luckily i went into a makeshift lane which took me onto the other side of the carriageway, others didn't notice in time and got stuck for ages.
Was travelling back with Mike and he noticed and we shot to outside lane, sooooo glad we did lol

Was an excelent day guys thanks alot for organising it, i had only planned on staying a short while as i had the mrs in tow and wasn't running my car but ended up staying the whole time!
There were some pretty impressive figures popping up, i didn't plan on putting mine on the rollers, but towards the end it was all too much for me! I had some cash on me and chucked it on, its just peace of mind sometimes to know that its fuelling ok and your not missing some det somewhere or something.
Anyways cheers lads
