Default Need help with Nitrous Install...

What other guages do I need? I have a dual pod with an AF guage. For my guage install is there a wireharness adapter that plugs in somewhere? If not, what wire do I tap into?

What plugs do I need and at what gap?

Where did you run your n20 lines? Under the car? In the car through the firewall? Where would be the best place for me to run my lines? Im mounting it on the hump in the back seats.

What should I have my fuel pressure safety switch set at? I dont have a guage to be able to tell, do I need one?

Any other help would be greatly appreciated. I have tommorow off and want to install the kit. I wont have the plugs in so I wont be shooting until I get them... please help.

John

Well..to fill the other spot in the pod I would choose a fuel pressure gauge. It good to know whats going on there BEFORE you spray. A nitrous pressure gauge would be a nice one too.

Go with some NGK TR6s gapped at .035-.038

I ran my nitrous line inside tha car along the left side door jamb and through a hole I made in the firewall on the drivers side under the dash. There are also some rubber grommets under you carpet ther in the passenger floor where you could run the line on the underside of the car. Also a factory grommet opening behind the computer on the passenger side firewall.

I have my FPSS set to around 48-50 psi.

Also see the link in my sig for some other basic stuff.
Let us know how it goes. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Ok, so If I run the lines in the car I can go along the passenger side and then through the firewall? Do I need to use any wireloom to protect it? I dont know how durable the lines are I just dont want them to get punctured.

Im still a little confused on the FPSS. If I have a fuel pressure guage what do I need to have everything set at? How do I know what the FPSS is at? Just enlighten me a little more about this.

Also, if I mount the tank in the backseats how do I mount the blowdown tube? I dont want to drill into anything and cause damage. I havent looked at my undercarriage enough to have a good picture of it. Is it best to mount it in the rear driver side seat or the hump in the back seat? Whats underneath?

Thanks a lot.
