Got the N2O and purge noids installed. I gave up on trying to stuff them under the passenger fuel rail cover. I think this looks cleaner.

Install is turning out nicely. I will make a couple of suggestions.

Clock the bottle so that the bottle nipple is rotated down and at the rear of the car. This will make sure the pick up tube grabs the liquid as the g-force of the launch pulls it to the back of the bottle.

Where you have the nitrous solenoids mounted the 16ft main feed line that comes standard in the kit will not be long enough. It may be close if you swap the bottle around and run the feed line down the drivers side of the car instead.

Sticking with your plan what I would suggest is picking up a filter and an extention line the lenth you will need. You really need a filter anyways.. Then you can come off the bottle with the extention hose to the filter and then connect your main feed line on the oposite side of the filter.

This is the filter I would suggest. You can take it apart and clean it through out time. We can build the hoses to any lenth you may need.

I already have a filter and a 24" extension line for that.

I have this filter. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/NOS-15550NOS/

Do you still think I will have a problem with length?

Okay feed line run. I had exactly enough line. Ran through the main harness grommet under the battery, under rocker trim, up trim piece along door sill and under carpet to bottle. Now just gotta do all the damn wiring...

Thanks NX. I ran the wires for my N2O and Fuel noids. Soldered and double heat shrinked the joints. My relays will be mounted in the battery box. This is just a rough layout right now. I still have to run the purge noid wires and put them all in convoluted tubing and tuck away under the cowl. But you get the idea.

I don't think I like the way it looks. I'm gonna change it.

Okay I think this looks better. Sorry if you hate looking at pics then you should avoid my threads. I took these with a Nikon instead of my crappy Blackberry.

Still a long way to go...
