Default How NOT, i repeat, NOT to install a nitrous kit!

Now, i know this is not the media section but it is the "nitrous" section and this is nitrous related. But if this needs to be moved then feel free to move it. But this is a good video for a lot of "nitrous rookies" to watch. It shows everthing that you should NOT do, i think it could be beneficial for the noobs.

Also, its a good laugh!

On his youtube site he says this in his comments.

no tune needed with 100 shot.you can purge the nitrous as long as you want just make sure the nozzles dont freeze.anything over 100 shot and you need a tune or pull timing.

You'd think it would be very efficient for the distribution of nitrous through the intake manifold....

I would be afraid of all that purge wiring mess to get caught in the belt and doing a big mess in my engine bay.
But since that is not my engine bay I would love to see a video of this big fail when it happens

Can't you just add a steel threaded nozzle thin enough to fit thru the vents and then just add a nut on each side to hold it firmly if he really wanted to have them there?
