Quicken...a 1 1/2 Gallon fuel cell up where your battery is with a nice high pressure/high volume pump (there's a lot out there so take ur pick) plumed for your N20 would be the best way to go....just takes more plumbing....gonna be a hellava job doing all of that plumbing.

I'de say a 1 gallor fuel cell would be plenty....... you might have to keep an eye on the level, but I dunno anyone who actually makes a 1.5 gallon cell. I like the Holley Blue pumps but the black would probably be better for a lot of juice. I like your thinking on the nitrous system myself. I'de stick with the 150 DP and 75 wet and then use both when ya need em.

So how much work is it to plumb the4 intake now for the DP system? The intake is off right now. Is there a kit I need to buy just with the plumbing?

Plumbing the intake can be alot of fun. The hard lines need to be bent close to perfect to get everything to fit nice and neat.

HOW MUCH IS JUST THE PLUMBING and the drilling? Just to have it all ready for installation of the DP system later on?

the plumbing is part of the dp system...in fact it's most of the system.

Im liking the sound of the 2 stage more and more. It would suck to completely lose traction at 50 mph.

How much, how much, how much

Everything except the fuel pump, fuel regulator, fuel cell and hoses.

I just want to know what it will cost to do all the plumbing so when I do buy the fuel pump, fuel regulator, fuel cell and hoses, all that will need to be done is hook it all up and SPRAY the bitch.

if I were you I'd buy the new NXL kit, no hard lines or anything, and take my car to whoever your local speed shop is w/package still sealed and drop your car off...they will probably end up still chargin anywhere from 200-300 to just install that package....anytime you go direct port wether it's you buying each individual peice, or letting a shop get all the peices, or buying the nxl kit your looking at 250 bux for a good set up....and then another 250ISH to install.

DP Fuel system cost is about $600 depending on what you want. A lot of money is tied up in the fittings and hose too.

For the DP drilling, tapping and bending I would expect some shops to do it for $1000 to $1600. Sometimes it depends on if they need your intake or not and I believe that may include the cost of the kit in some cases. The real work is in bending the tubing. The drilling and tapping is actually easy, but tedious. I ultimately used -3AN TFE lines instead of hard lines. Makes it much nicer to work with.

so you pretty much did it the NXL way w/the high pressure black poly lines that didn't have to be bended perfectly as long as you cut them the same length

Pretty close. I used the steel braided TFE Aeroquip lines that are much larger then the small hoses that NX uses. Functionally it will flow more fuel and nitrous then the black lines will. They were all 12.5" long. 8 Of them were -03 straights on one end and -03 45's on the other. The remaining 8 were 45's on each side. It worked out very well. The only thing I should have done different was used a shorter section of rail, similar to how the NXL does it. That would have made it a little cleaner I think. I tried to keep everything balanced as best as I could given the space that's available. It makes for very quick jet changes though! The back cylinders are fun, but it's so much nicer then solid lines.
