Smile Any install tips for 5177?

My 5177 kit will be here tomorrow and im going to try and put it on when I get home from work. You guys have any tips that might make this install easier? Or any precautions that I need to take before spraying for the first time?

Thanks, Justin

I was unable to place my 15lbs bottle in spare area, so I mounted it in the boot sideways and tilted 45o so the inner pick up tube will be able suck fluid N2O even at acceleration (It's in the install diagram as a mounting option). With a heater i've had no problems yet. The nice thing about a dry system is if you run out of juice, the MAF readjusts and does no adverse effect on engine.(You'll justy finish the race N/A).

              is it ok to spray through shifts on an A4 or do those need the window switch also?

              on the stock LS1 tranny...NO. That will really mess your transmission up lol. I ran mine from the spare tire , under the carpet then up through my door to my fender well...then just ran it into my cold air...it was a good setup.

              With a 100 NOS shot, I beg to differ. I've been doing it all the time no problems. When I went to 150 dry, I just shot it in 2nd right after 1-2 shift and through 3rd but never in 4th. Still no problem.

              Of course I only have 35K on my tranny, take mileage in consideration.
