With almost every bottle out there the valve needs to be facing towards the front of the car and the nitrous feed line needs to be pointing down. Also it does need to be mounted at around a 15 degree angle for optimum performance but if it is more it will still work just you may not get full performance with a low bottle due to the nitrous being force to the back of the car.

Ok so i think ill move it. Any good deals on a trans tunnel mount? Also i need to upgrade my solenoids and lines to go up to a 250hp shot. I already have a nitrous kit but its only good to a 150.

most people talk about a bottle warmer, but make sure the bottle doesn't get too hot. You wanna try to keep it out of the sun, if that nitrous makes it to 97F it stops becoming liquid and becomes vapor. This means its less dense and will not be set up properly for your tune. You want to make sure its liquid, but has enough pressure.
