It was a turbo version of the same model and I got enamored of how it would squirt through traffic on those rare occasions when more power would be handy. So the choice was to spend $50,000 for a car or $400 for a nitrous kit. The latter fit my budget better and using just enough nitrous to equal the power of the turbo made it faster than the turbo car because I don't have the weight of a turbo. And the red light on the arming switch is way cool!
