15lb bottle will fit with the 860 heater and bracket made to fit in the spare tire well, but not with a bottle opener. Not even if you remove the speaker.

The black lines we use should not crack. It is a teflon inner liner, with kevlar mesh weave, and a vinyl jacketing. The lines working pressure is over 20,000 psi.
The standalone is a very good idea, but the NXL rails would have to be modified for that work. We pull the fuel from the rail for the system, so a plug is going to be needed. And the you will have to drill another hole to get the new fuel supply into the fuel solenoid.
In the kit there should have been a small instruction sheet showing how to put the lines together. It is really easy, simular to a plastic water line for an ice make. It use a compression fitting/nut and farrel to crush the hose onto the barbs of the hose insert. Feel free to contact us any time, if you need any help.

Ricky, thanks for info. i really appreciate it! As was discussed earlier, someone was stating that since the fuel rails flow at a higher psi, that the 120 shots could easily get clogged w/out a standalone? could a fuel accumulator get me by? and do you happen to know how much the hardlines cost for this kit?

We have dyno'd the system with all jettings. We would not release a product that was only half correct. 120 pills are absolutely no problem with that set up. The accumulator is just a pressure reservior. It aid is decreasing your volume/pressure drop. YOu will still have some drop, drop should be no stumble. It is recommend for a 255 in the rear with any hiperformance upgrades like this.
Hard line is 5.00 per foot and the sleeves are 3.00 ea. you will need 32 sleeves, footage you will need to look at how you want to run your line. NOW, running hardline will introduce a large volume needed to fill before achieving pressure.

I don't have any picture of my accumulator. It was on my car for a short while until I changed to a different NX setup. I'll sell it for half the price of a new one.

A wideband on a performance car should never be viewed as "overkill." Just because you are not data logging doesn't mean you could still get valuable info realtime on a gage that could help you keep tabs on the performance of your system/ car.

The poly lines are also much easier for changing jets, compared to hard line. I like the looks of it also. We have a stand alone that requires no moving of anything, so batt can remain, unless you really wanted to move it.

A good tuner can help you with that falling on its face problem !!! I had the same issue with a 150 shot even with my racetronic kit in the rear it spiked lean as soon as it hit the window switch and we got it fixed with some great tunning from HWT!!

I have personally seen the NXL kit mount up to a FAST intake.
