Anti lag effects from too much meth?

Anti lag effects from too much meth?
Hi all,
Just wondering if any of you have had anti lag-like effects from spraying a ton of meth.
A low down on my set up:
Aquamist HFS5 1X1mm nozzle just before throttle body, starting to spray at about 1.1 bar.
As the weather warmed up recently, I've been starting to turn the meth back on while attacking some local twisties. I've noticed that on subsequent on-off throttle situations, the boost would keep up and the car seems like it it wants to keep going (it slows down, doesn't keep going at the same speed, but definitely going faster than normal).
I've checked the throttle cable and its not sticking. So the only conclusion that I've come to is that my line running from the HSV to the nozzle is too long (I mounted the HSV on the fuse box and ran the line from there back to right before the TB). This probably didn't allow the meth to stop flowing immediately after I let go of the throttle and the extra meth was what's igniting and keeping the turbo going.
I've also noticed that the backfire from meth sounds a lot more subtle than from gas. I had a rich tune before so I know that gas backfire sounds like a bang, but the backfire from meth sounds more like a shuffle.
Anyone with similar experiences? This was sort of an unexpected plus (no lag between quick on off throttle)
