Where's them there pics at Noyzee? Also, there must be more installs and/or new guys to add to the pics? I will have new set-up pics soon (Hybrid multi stage).

I am working on trouble shooting it but no luck so far. I'd hate to post pics of something that doesen't work.

I got it working earlier this summer and have been tinkering with it a little at a time. I had the wife make a bottle blanket for me and that was the last thing I had to do. I need some one to tell me how to post the pics. I would like to put them in like Beer did with captions for each pic explaining the pic. Also what size do I need to get them down to so they are not too big?

I put my pics in a word document and tried to up load through manage attachments, but I keep getting an error message. I copied the error message and sent it to the webmaster about a week ago but I have not received a response.

Or you can set up an account here, it's free and just follow the directions, but you'll still will be down loading pics from your comp the same way, but they won't be minimized like using the sites manage attachments. It's basically a free Personal Web Site. here's mine.

A big thanks to Beer for putting the pics up for me. Nothing fancy and a first time nitrous guy so nobody laugh. I did not try to hide it but just tried to keep the install neat and somewhat factory looking.
The solenoid bracket bolts to the head but has 4 silicone insulators so the solenoids stay so much cooler than they would without the insulators.
I have the nozzle mounted in the angled part of the coupler so it sprays at the center of the throttle body instead of down the side. The nozzle is also rotated up slightly so the spray is pointed just above the throttle shaft.
The switch plate is homemade for the fire & ice heater, arm switch, bottle opener and purge button.
I have a micro switch on the shifter. When I hold the button down it keeps the nitrous off for those times when traction is a problem such as 1st gear.
The LED next to the nitrous guage is bright blue and comes on anytime the solenoids are activated. The LED next to the fuel guage is red and comes on if the solenoids are activated and the fuel pressure falls below the psi the fuel pressure safety switch is set at. The FPSS is to the right of the solenoids.
The next pic is the right side of the driver's footwell. The toggle switch on the left turns the high speed fans on and the rocker switch is for the orange bottle heater. The clear LED's are blue on the left tells when the high speed cooling fans are on, the center one is yellow for the bottle heater and the right one is red for the low speed cooling fans.
My FJO 2 channel wideband control box is under the pass. seat with a piece of cheap auto store carpet over it.
The bottle blanket is home made from grey ironing board material with 1" fiberglass insulation inside. It completly wraps the bottle except for where the fire & ice unit is.
The car is a stock 02 Z06. I did run a bottle through it with a 50 shot. After some data logging and a couple of jet changes everything works as planned. The FJO was a life (engine) saver. The NX recomended jetting was much too lean. It was nice to see the blue LED go out and know the solenoids were closed anytime the AFR got out of the limits I have set.
I'm just waiting for spring to refill the bottle and put in the 100 shot jets.

The 200 shot is all at once, and I also have an acumalator to keep from draining the fuel rail. When I first installed it I would get a huge stall and then a major blast. Once I added the acumalator it's as smooth as can be. Right now I have Nitto's on it so I break loose half the track. On the 1/8th I did a 7.00 even with a 1.72 60ft at 102mph. I haven't had a chance to get out to the 1/4 mile track yet. It's an automatic with a 3200 stall. I'm putting the 225cc AFR heads on it tomorrow, and my slicks should be here sometime next week. I'll let you know what the times are when I get it to the track.
Oh and the nitrous fires at 3,000 rpm at full throttle only.
Is that better on the size..........

Your car is still one of my favorites.
I need to get some info from you to update your area on our website.
