I went with the stealth install. I painted my zex box and the purge solenoid black and mounted the box behind the supercharger. If you don't know what to look for you can't even tell I have it.

lol, today i was letting out the "old" nitrous out my bottle, and my g/f asks me "what are you doing?" i told her "letting the pressure out of the bottle." she then says, "what bottle." i said "EXACTLY!" :idea:

I'll post pics tomorrow. I'm really happy with how everything came out.

Looks good Chiz. :rockon:


thanks, but you may have missed my question....why did you mount your bottle towards the tailgate instead of towards the cab?

Easier to get to. Plus it was the perfect amount of braided hose.

You are going to uncover the siphon tube under hard accelleration with that setup.The tube must draw liquid nitrous.

i was just wondering what effect it would have on the siphon tube?

Huh?? The bottom of the bottle faces the tailgate, like yours. The top of the bottle faces the front, like yours. Isn't the siphon tube at the bottom of the bottle at the back of the bottle??

Look at my pics again please. The bottom of the bottle faces the tailgate with the top of the bottle towards the front. Under hard acceleration wouldn't all the liquid N2O go towards the siphon tube?

My bad! I don't know why I thought you had the valve to the rear. I guess I need to quit drinking and pay more attention. Your install is correct!

CHIZ,

Looks good, I have the same setup but I took my purge solenoid and put it under the wiper cowl with just a slight bit of tube sticking out of the grate to clean up the engine bay.
