There's one in Vegas with it now, but not sure of the set up though. I would think 3 seconds would be a long hit for flatwater.

No I haven't. I got a message on FB from him saying they had one together though. I bought my first rn from him. I'll have to hit him up on it and see how it's doing.. I'd like to see it! Curious but nervous ya know.

I just want to see it....
Isn't the true concern the trapped volume instead of the PSI? 10:1 is still 10:1 at any elevation, isn't it? I'm not sure if you want to push the envelope on that without at least increasing your octane levels...
I care about air density in the cylinder, not volume. Yes, the volume is the same as sea level, and yes the compression ratio is the same. But the actual amount of gas in the cylinder is 20% less due to altitude. So as long as I calculate the amount of nitrous I'm adding relative to the amount of boost, I can safely keep the amount of pressure/air density in the engine at sea level equivalent, or keep the amount of extra horse power I'm boosting to plus the stock amount minus 20% (due to 20% less oxygen at altitude) at or below sea level equivalent--which ever I hit first. So either way, the max load on any part of the engine will be the equivalent of sea level.
Though yes, I will run 93 octane to be safe, though assuming I do my calcs right, there shouldn't be any issue at full load.

what shot? 25 hp? Cool setup! Electric fuel pump?
My nitrous is set to go, it's a cluster 
in the compartment but I will shorten everything down later. Welded the bottle grip to a plate and bolted it to the hull, had to melt the gas tank and reform it so the bottle could easily slide in. The two solenoids and fuel pump are right next to the carb. Have the switch mounted so that it gets depressed when the throttle wheel is rotated into WOT.
Testing today, wet system with a 10hp boost. Bottle is ~9lbs filled, with 2.5lbs of nitrous in it, we'll see how long that lasts and how it performs.
