Amanda,
Thank you for providing Horst's quotes. From his description, it appears that his aircraft may have been a preliminary version of the Bf 109 G-5/U2, a high-altitude sub-type of the 109 equipped with with GM-1 nitrous oxide boost. More knowledgeable people on this forum may clarify this technical point.
Regards,
Dan
