Default Hiding a wet shot...

People have brought this up in the past so I thought I'd start a discussion. The 2 biggest problems with hiding a wet shot are the nozzle and the fuel supply. Now, if one were to add a fuel block near the tank and add an additional fuel line strictly for the N2O (there is an extra spot in the plastic clips along the frame) with a Aeromotive regulator somewhere under the car, would this work? That way without using the schrader valve, you could shove the solenoids near the brake booster or behind the PCM. With a stock lid, a nozzle under the intake track would be easier to hide, but with an aftermarket lid, would it be inconspicuous enough?

Thoughts?

Hiding N2O is basically common sense. If you can see something, move it. If someone knows what they are looking for they can always find it though.

ok...so you think running a separate fuel line from a fuel block and regulator to the fuel solenoid is a better idea than just painting the fuel sol. black and sticking it on the end of the rail? I dont know if it will work or not.

Thoughts?

I've always thought about hiding the sprayer in the EGR tube.

How about tapping into the back of the fuel rail? I'm sure it could be modified somehow.

I have my fuel solenoid painted black sitting on the end of the fuel rail, most people don't notice it.
