Default purge options/ideas

Well Im going to be installing my kit soon and i just cant help thinking of where im gonna set up my purge, i want to have it somewhere that will look nice but also your not going to see the hose sticking out (i would prefer somewhere on the front bumper but the little hose would be sticking out) so i will probably just purge out of where the windsheild wipers are unless someone comes up with someitnhg better that isnt really time consuming

i just ran mine today, used steel brake line. went from the purge noid over the intak to the first vent screen in the plasyic shroud, then 90 degree hook right to the center of the car, exits right in the middle, base of the whiper. looks good. i may paint the tube black to match the engin bay, or cover it with loom. not sure. wish i had pix for ya but i just did it today, still not really finished, i gotta cut it and bend the end to look nice.
hope that helps

The SS vent would be easy,run a braided line the whole way up under the hood just like your hood light is..

Coming out of the vent would look awesome.

I dont see why the hood vent would be hard , it would look quite sick if you could purge out of the hood at a small upward angle

Pulling up to a group of ricers and purging says "I dare you to even try" along with a whole bunch of meanings.

i'm new to n2o,

I have a ws6 and i am considering the bottle, i think it would be awesome to do the lower side vents, but with all of that extra plumbing, isn't it VERY wasteful? I dunno, how long does the bottle last if you go around purging everywhere?

I tried setting up the purge but for some reason everytime I test it out, the copper tubing I'm using that comes out of a tee-compression fitting, shoots out of the fitting!

Thanks for this thread. I'm planning my blow hole in the same area of the cowl. I def want a visual reference. How about nylon air line with a burst pressure of 1500 will it work? Dead Guy Ale Rules!!
