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.

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.

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).

There is no "absolute" place you have to put it as long as it is between your airbox and TB. Do you have a pic of under your hood because I have never seen a pic of your layout.

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.

As long as you're above 3000RPMS after you shift it will continue to spray until 6000RPM

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.
