Mine is ordered; should be here next week.
For some reason, you can't next day air Nitro-Methane.

Update:
The Nitro-Booster is back ordered; they are waiting on a shipment of Nitro-Methane.
The Nitro-Booster is made of Nitro-Methane mixed with an emulsifier.


2nd Update:
Nitro-Booster shipped today.

From Snow's web site:
Nitro Booster™ is a great power adder designed for use with gasoline engines using Boost Cooler™ water-methanol injection kits. A proprietary blend of nitro methane and a specially developed emulsifier that keeps Nitro Booster™ equally distributed in the water-methanol mixture. This allows for a small percentage of nitro methane to be injected into the engine in the correct proportion with air and fuel to produce impressive increases in power. Usually, around 30 to 50hp increase can be measured. Nitro methane has fewer BTUs than gasoline, but contains oxygen and acts like a chemical supercharger and an octane enhancer to safely increase power.

Update 3:
No Nitro for me. (yet)
The shipment I received was a low level indicator from last month. (I thought this shipment was my Nitro-Boost)
I called Snow; they expect the Nitro-Boost to ship "the beginning of next week" (that would be about June 23rd)
They said they are having problems getting the Nitro-Methane to make the Nitro-Booster.

Update 4...:
UPS must not love me anymore...
Still no Nitro-Booster; but there is a black suburban driving around the neighborhood...
