I have a NX FPSS and it says to install it directy into the N20 solenoid. I was wondering if I could just mount in on the end of my fuel rail as space is a little limited around the solenoids. Is this cool or bad idea?
I have mine there, and have used that spot before. I have a NX install manual and it says to mount near fuel pump, or at least before regulator. Now I don't know what kit/car this manual is for, but remember it saying this.

i dont know why you wouldnt want it as close to the fuel noid as possible to assure adequate flow throughout the system instead of just by the pump or before the regulator

My previous post was for a low pressure system.
The NX EFI fpss is in fact suggested to go directly on the fuel noid using the supplied blue manifold, according to directions I have. Maybe one of the NX guys can comment.

"The best location for fpss is at the outlet side of the of the fuel pump...This location will allow instantaneous n2o sys shutdown is case of fuel pump failure. The next best location would be on the high-press side of the fuel press regulator...

But no matter a low pressure system is not applicable in this case anyway.
