Default Where are you running your N2O main line???

I am slowly finding time for my wet nitrous kit install and I would like some ideas on where to place the main line coming out of the bottle. I haven't decided where to mount the 10 lb bottle yet, either, just somewhere in the rear like the spare tire area or remove the cd changer and place a 5lb (which i haven't bought yet) bottle there or just place it where the t-tops mount...

Keep the line under the car and out in the weather or snake it through interior? Pics??

Thanks ahead of time,

Brad

I have my bottle in the spare tire well. The feed line goes from there under the carpet and through the fire wall.

Sparetire, through the fender well, under the car, up the front fender and through a hole infront of the PCM. Nothing like 2 1in holes in a 02 SS....

My bottle is in the spare tire well. I have the line going through the door sill and out of the PCM grommet.

Really easy to do.

Same here.

As long as you have enough feed and a good flexible line you should be able to do it in like 30min.

after you do it once it will take you 10-15 mins, 3 screws, and side panel comes off, torq bit for the seat belt, and 2 10mm bolts to slide the computer out of the way. Start from the front push it through the gromet, grab it pull it through and push it through the panel the speakers in grab it from teh spare area then tuck it and go backwards

Dead center in the trunk (hardtop for me ) for the bottle mount. The line goes under the car along the body seam.

My bottle is mounted in between the rear seats and the line is snaked through underneath the car.

My bottle is mounted on the tunnel between where the back seats use to be. The feed line goes through the grommet in the floor under the car but above the Kenny Brown sub-frame connectors. The car doesn't see bad weather and is just a summer toy, so I feel pretty safe that it will last a while.
