Here is a pic of my setup:
I labeled everything for you. I am not sure of your engine setup but the "lid" is just the airbox where the air filter goes, so put your nozzle between that and the throttlebody, make sure it is pointing in the right direction to.
Nitrous is $4.25 a pound near me, ask at the track, speed shops or anyone you know running it.

well i really appreciate all the help and especially that pic..but that aint how mine is setup..my airfilter is on top of my intake..it goes like this.. air filter then tbi and then my intake manifold..where would i put it then? and also would a rpm activation switch be a good investment..comes on at 3000 and cuts off at 6000 for $200 yes or no..and also read the beginning again and tell me wat ya think..
What you can get out of that pic is how close his nozzle is to the TB. Do the same even though yours is verticle.
As for the window switch.. GREAT investment. Just one more thing that will save your motor and tranny from being a grenade.

oh okay..so saying i have the rpm activation switch..when i flip the microswitch and it comes on..when i floor it and it gets up to 3000 rpm will the rpm activation switch automatically engage the nitrous making it starting going into my engine?

Not really. The only part is getting the tach wire hooked up. It connects to your ECM unit, pin 10 which is a white wire. There are schematics in the sticky's. There are also threads about the different kinds. Some use "pills" that plug into the module to set the RPM on/off. Others, like mine, set by digital number. (got mine (mallory) from Nitrous Direct).

And yes a window switch is a GREAT investment, just one of many safety features that should always be used. Like the other poster said, it is easy to hook up, just find the tach wire and splice it in there.

DON'T DRINK AND TAKE PICTURES.
Dude.. that pic is so bad.. I think I see Jesus' face in there.. or is it Lincon's?
I'm sure it's fine, if you've followed the suggestions here and the instructions. Running a plate takes some of the guess work out of it. Make sure the nozzle is pointing into the motor. If you've used a programmer or have a "chip" in it, TAKE IT OUT.
After you fill your bottle and hook it up, use some liquid soap around the connections and look for bubbles. Then...

They advance the timing. Very bad thing with N2O. You want it back to stock setting for engine management. You can use a hand-held programmer but only for shift points, redline, shift stiffness etc. After 100 shot of nos, start retarding the timing, 2 deg for every extra 50.
