The solenoids are not in the intake.They mount in the cowl or behind the motor etc.

well everyone seems to say that a 50shot is pretty much a waste for our cars so why don't i just get a 100shot jet and use that on the NX stealth kit? My only intention of a stealth nitrous kit is for the streets for emergencies only So given I wouldn't need to spray more then a few times a year, if that. So if a 1.4lb bottle can only last 1-2 100shots then I think that is perfect for me. is there any other issue that I am missing?

Nitrous newbies, they never learn .

J/K, kinda. Wait till you get the nitrous than tell me "a few times a year, if that" .

You don't have to, but you should consider a window switch (that kit listed already comes with a WOT switch I think). You should also change your spark plugs to a colder plug (ngk TR6's are a good plug), and it never hurts to run a higher octane, or get a tune to back timing off a little (although you should be fine with a 100 shot).

Yes I am aware of all the needed accessories already and plan on getting a tune for the cam this spring. I'll let you all know what I decide to do. Thanks for all the help guys

It is being sprayed right where you see that little shiny copper looking thing in the pic. above.

In the following pic, you can see where the noid-jet feed line goes to...



And in the following pic. you can see that the noids and feed line are BELOW the filter, BELOW the entire box, so if you take the lid off, and filter out, you still won't see a thing....

if you are hiding the bottle in the spare tire area, go with a bigger bottle, i think a 10-15 will fit with a remote opener

here's something else you can do w/ spare parts. get a 2-5lb bottle. but it in the cowl under your horn or on the drivers side under the fog lamps (may be different on the camaro's). Mount your sol's either on the firewall or more easily below your fuse boxes or headlights. No one will see them. then cleverly run a -3 line into a new hollow iat sensor into your lid. use a NOS fan nozzle w/ the end cut off, no jet. should work fine and if you cover your lines w/ that plastic wire loom...no one will see ****.

OR you could always plug a wet kit in in the back of the intake and get a fitting welded onto the back of the rail.

think u could do the fuel noids like that too?

but run it out the back instead of there so the maf and bellows would hide the line?

of course you could, you could put one set of noids on one side, and the other noid on the other, or 1 of each on the same side, maybe more than 2 will fit, I didn't take measurements (deep breathe).

That would make for one of the MUCH CLEANER wet kit installs, thats for sure.

EDIT: you don't mean running the lines inside the bellows and through the MAF, do you?? If that's what you meant, than no, don't do that . I'm sure you could hide them rather simply though by using larger diameter bellows, gromets, or tubing OVER the stock size/whatever you have. Now were getting createver

exactly Not trying to steer you away, but if you are really trying to hide it, why not just run a dry kit the same way as the one I showed?? There's even more creative place, VERY GOOD place for the switches too .

I wanna run a small 50-75 dry shot just for emergencies
i have a 2.5 lb.bottle with a chrome finish if interested will take 100.00

Another curiosity question, why do you presume it's safer?
