My nitrous install progress

I have made much more progress but I am way behind on the pics. This is just my test fit. Now I have the fuel and nitrous lines run, and the line to the pressure gauge. Just have to finish the electrical and mount the tank in the bed. Hopefully it will be 97% undetectable by sight when I am done.

Could you hit me up @ Brahmus@gmail.com I have a NX kit I want to install also. Fairly stealth, and would like to pick your brain. Do you have more pics somewhere? I'm wanting to but the 10lb bottle behind the drivers seat. You using Sal's plate?

I will post up more pics within the next few days. I am done with everything in the engine bay. just need to wire up the electric in the cab. I am using the PSP nitrous plate. All I need is a polish throttle body and it will match the plate and most will never know

I have not figure out the bottle situation yet. Probably going to get a bed rug, then built a small box(just enough to fit the tank and stick it in the corner of the bed on the drives side up by the cab. The upholster the box with the bed rug material to match, then do the same on the other side for the battery and it should look like it came that way from the factory(at least in my nightly Hallucinations!).

Lookin good.

I have my bottle right behind the drivers seat. This year sometime I'm making a fiberglass box to finish it out and hold a couple subs.

OH btw.. I have a 15lb bottle and mounting it in the location I did was about the only way w/o moving the CD thing.

It's handy too becuase I can open the bottle by just reaching back behind the seat.

Just pray it doesn't leak in side the cab with you. We will find you stopped on the side of the road cracking up!

Actually the racetested bottle has a valve that only bleeds excess pressure off.

The popular brands have a burst disk that dumps the whole contents if it got over pressured. If that happens you gotta fix the burst disk and refill the whole bottle.
