Default Anyone have their purge in the hoodscoop?

I was thinking about doing this...just running a soft line off the purge instead of the hardline...doesnt seem too hard...

maybe some pics of the set up would help...thanks

I do...just use some nylon line. it looks cool. but unless youre running a 200HP+ shot you really dont need the purge. Id get a window switch or a bottle heater instead.

I did it with 1/8 copper lines and compression fittings. Doesn't fire out the nostrils directly, but, well... just look at this video (not my car... not sure who this is).

What doy uo have? SS or T/a? I've got mine running out the nostrols on my SS. I got deployed before it was fine tuned, and not sure if I'll mess with it before I ship my car down to Seattle next month. But I have some pics of the install if you are interested.

I wouldn't think you. You should only be purging for a short period of time, so shouldn't be any ill effects. Hell, my car sits out in -30 degree weather and no problems. So I'm sure a few short bursts of nitrous isn't going to do anything.
