Default NX MAF Install Picture

I will try to add more later.

Fuel solenoid is mounted on fuel rail with Earl's fitting 916104ERL. I used 3/16' brake line for purge line (purge exits directly in front of drivers line of sight). Main nitrous line is routed along OEM fuel line with plastic ties and enters interior through OEM rubber grommet under rear passenger seat. BMN window switch works fine and is mounted under dash using two sided 3M mounting tape.

Mounted bottle on driveshaft loop. With bottle mounted behind me I do not need a bottle opener or remote nitrous pressure gauge. I made bottle bracket and nitrous solenoid bracket from 1/8" x 1 1/2" steel from Home Depot. It is attached to hump with 4 short sheet metal screws. NX Insulated bottle jacket installed.

Dave's new 90mm nitrous plate will hook up easily if I ever switch to the FAST intake, 90mm throttle body, and larger SLP MAF for better intake breathing. The small diameter MAF is just too restrictive for the larger 90mm set up.

I'd order a new shorter fuel line and get that loop out. I'd add that i'd rather have a Nitrous Pressure gauge in my line of sight. My opinion. Otherwise it looks okay.

I agree, it would look better with a shorter fuel line. But I was told by a good source that a shorter fuel line will cause a "TOO RICH AFR" condition upon activation. In other words BOG DOWN BRIEFLY until nitrous catches up.

This is true, especially with a EFI fuel pressure. I like your install, it looks great.

I'm not trying to sound like an AH but try a tune up...every N20 system has a varience that causes lean/rich spikes when it hits. I'm in the middle of installing an NX MAF system to replace my old (yawn) Zex. I'm involved in doing some interesting stuff with the solenoids that I'm not even certain of...sounds to surreal...but it's true. So far no one has said anything about the length of the fuel line being an issue...i will certainly find out and recant anything and everything if necessary.

No advantage. Just a neater looking install.
