Question Looking for pics/info on hidden NOS systems

Looking at getting the NOS 5177 kit w/ 15 lb. bottle. I'd like to mount it in the panel adjacent to where my sub is at. Can anyone help me?

1)just pull your spare/jack out and secure the bottle in there.

2)run the line forward under the carpet against the passenger side of the door sill, up through the grommet under the dash where the body harness connects to the PCM.

3) run the line over the pass. side strut tower and down the fender underneath the little lip on it. cover it with some black wire loom, it won't be stock but it'll still be tough to notice.

4) mount the solenoids somewhere down near the radiator support and send the jets up through a hole in the air filter.

5) a convenient place to mount your relay is to use a self-tapping screw and just screw it into the back of the big plastic bracket that holds the two underhood fuse boxes (be careful not to drill into the boxes of course.) then run the wire (preferably black for subtlety sake) for your arming switch along the bottom of the air hose that runs up against the driver side fender and secure it every foot or so with a strip of electrical tape. you will have to drill a hole in the firewall (no big deal) under the driver side of the dash to let the wire into the car.

6) most of the other wiring you can conceal fairly well down in the nose of the car (under and infront of the airbox area.)


this isn't gonna be terribly hard to find, but to the casual observer, you could pop your hood and nobody would know the difference. there are better ways, but this is more or less the way i have it (minus the air filter hole part) and it's very clean looking.

about 40 11.0-11.4 passes on it at the track and probably just as many on the street without a single problem. 150 jets in it on an otherwise stock full weight vert

its just an added safety feature. they run in series so if one sticks open the other will still cut the nitrous. i only have one in my kit, it still functions the same way.
