Need HELP with Noid Placement (pix 56k beware)
Need HELP with Noid Placement (pix 56k beware) Hey guys, made some progress with my stealth install today. I've got the next revision of my nozzle bracket made. This one doesnt have any bolts inside of the airbox so theres no worry of anything flying off into my engine due to vibration. I did give up the adjustability of my last nozzle bracket as this one is pretty much staying where its at unless i modify it further. I still have to route the lines through the side of the filter (thinking i might go through the back rubber part to keep the lines near each other).
With this setup in mind where can i mount my Noid and still keep it out of sight? I have this idea where I can mount the noid under the nostril area of the front bumper but the only way I can do that is if I use double sided tape. Is that safe? I tried fitting the noid and bracket in there as there is a bolt I can use for the bracket but its just so cramped in there that mounting it with a modified bracket might not be possible. My noid does have a rather large flat spot on the back which would be the optimum spot to use double sided tape but I'm just not sure how hot these things get and if that would affect the ability of the tape to hold onto the noid. The area I'm talking about is under that black (light black) plastic piece and above the red beam.
Another idea i have is I can mount it in front of the radiator (where that X or V shaped bracket is with a bolt in it). The only problem with this spot is that it would be exposed to the elements. Seeing as how dirty the air dam gets and the other stuff in that area, it looks like a fair amount of water gets up there from puddles and what not. Are Noids pretty resistant to being exposed to the elements like that or should they be kept dry at all time?
Thanks for any help you guys might be able to give me.

The location that I have picked out for it should be good with double sided tape. I took the big black plastic radiator support off and notched out a little cubby hole for the noid. The huge HSW noid you guys supplied me with fits perfectly (side to side) between the driver side ribs underneath. I just cut some of the plastic away to allow room for the T fitting and the nitrous inlet fitting. Those cutouts dont allow the noid to move up/down or left/right. It could rotate however which is why I wanted to use the double sided tape. I highly doubt that it would rotate though sice the noid is so big it will be sandwhiched between the black radiator support plastic and the frame where it bolts into. There is just enough room to sneak the main feed line through the cracks in front of the radiator. This should work out perfectly, all I have to do now is drill 2 holes to route the dual feed lines to the noid and address my bracket adjustability issue and I should be all set.
