I'm thinking I'll get the Harris kit and spend the other $$$ on AM guages.

spend the money on some DynoTune gauges instead

I don't like the digital guages they offer. I bought some Phanton IIs.

Well, I got my new spark plugs, NGK-Tr6 in. It actually went quite well, easier than I expected. Cool thing was when I went to change plug 8, I found out I have subframe connectors on my car lol

I have my bottle in my spare tire well but I have 2 12's in my t-top area so when i take mine off I just put them in the back seat but i wrap them in a blanket so they dont mess up the seat or each other works really good too.......im sure not as good as the stock holders but I guess you have to sacrifice for having a badass system.

I didn't read all the posts so this may have been said already, but if not.....I was reading hotrod one day and they got a toolbox (metal) and cut the bottom out of it. But left enough material to mount the box to the trunk. Then mounted the n20 bottle brackets inside of it. They kept the box door functional and there you go...nobody will know the difference. And if you wanna get sneaky you have a dumby bottle in the open so when you race you tell your opponent to race all motor...keep your "box bottle" hooked up but disconnect your dumby bottle. That way if your nozzle/plate is still connected they think the bottle is disconnected and they won't think twice. Easy $$$$$.

Good idea, but I think I'm going to keep the bottle in the top holder for now.

quite a dilema...that doesnt leave many places to hide a 10lb bottle...i say just sell the big bottle and buy a sneaky pete system...that you can hide in your door panel or under the plastic panel in the back seat...i dont see any other options....just do what i did a mount that bottle right between the back seats...been pulled over hundreds of times, they saw the bottle and they never did anything...but its personla pref...i do carshows and stuff...so like it visible...but hey everyone is different

why do you want to hide the bottle with that kit??? ALl you have to do is pop the hood...and see everything......but anyways....On my mustang I had I just cut the foam under the back seat and mounted it under there...worked fine...Dont think you can do that with the Camaro though.....oohh well....stick it in your spare tire well......easy place...**** your spare tire.....

I don't care about under the hood, I just don't like people to easily walk past my car and see a bottle in the rear window. That draws extra unneeded attention.

And I am not putting it in the spare tire area, I'm putting it in the t-top holders. I drive my car too much to remove the spare tire.

Yeah my friend told me about that, except it was in one of the rear seats. But that comes down to me, I like a clean looking car. That still can draw some attention to some assclown thinking I have something good in a bag.

I've been wondering if a 10# bottle will fit if you take out the bose speaker there on the opposite side of the spare tire. I've got a 94 z28. I had thought about mounting it down there where you guys have ttop holders, but I carry a 137pc. craftsman set back there and a bunch of other crap all the time.
Edit: I don't want to lose my spare either, I seem to take a tire out about once a year.
