yes. you can hide anything. well unless the lookers know whats up. you can plumb the rear of an intake. or put a kit in the valley of the motor and enter from the bottom. most guys would not notice a nozzle in the bottom of a elbow if you lume it.

I have hidden several kits for customers. Just got done doing a vette as a matter of fact. Back years ago when I street raced alot, which I do not condone, I had a kit hidden in the intake of a trans am. All of the plumbing is easy to hide in silicone or rubber hosing. The bottle was hid away in the spare tire well with carpet insulation and carpet over is so it appeared to be nothing there. It is pretty obvious when you spray a car though unless it is a small kit.

if your not a serious street/grudge racer (no big money involved), just put the bottle in the spare tire area, loom the lines, put the noids under the cowl, and spray it into the bottom or the air box or something like that. A real street racer might be able to see something like that though. Otherwise there is always the Nitro Dave Moneymaker kit.

Keep the hood closed and it is all hidden! I am sure a few people will post pics of hidden systems. I have seen a good number on here before.

I agree...99% of the time people are wasting their time hiding it, especially when moneys on the line. I know most of the local guys here and its pretty hard to get anything by them when money's on the line. And 99% of the time you don't want them to find it after you've just lied to them. I wouldn't waste my time and I'd be up front about it from the get go...but that's just my opinion.

No one around me races for money just for ***** and giggles but we got all these bmw m cars and all imports who think american cars are junk and slow but i dont want to just beat them i wanna show them whats up! i wanna hide everything they will only take a glance in the engine bay and they will look in the trunk and the rear seats for a bottle but they would never check the spare tire area.

Its not always about the money. Nothing is more fun than going out and just winning by a fender everytime you race. Its kind of the dont ask dont tell policy. If the car is set up right no matter how fast your competitor is just use enough to bearely take him.
Then they are like damn that car just keeps getting faster and faster.lol

As far as money.. Sometimes its about what is visable and what is not. If you have hidden stages on cars and were to only show one shitty one leading them think thats what you are using you are not lieing. They just think that old junky NOS dry kit that can max flow 125 is what we got when in reality you have 300 packed away for the suprise.lol Its like playing cards.. You dont always show your full hand.

it would be hard to do, it is easier to hide a dry system. I like to flaunt what I have.

Do dudes on steroids hide their muscles? Fk no... don't hide yours either.
