Wanting to clean up engine bay....solenoid placement suggestions needed. The nitrous kit "works" great. It's just not the most appeasing to the eyes. I'm wanting to clean it up a bit. I don't have a problem getting shorter lines (which is better anyways) either. I'm not looking for it to be hidden (although, that's fine too) because the bottle between the back seats kinda gives it away. Here's what I've got now.....any suggestions would be appreciated. PLEASE post pictures of your set-ups.

There's a lot of options. I went with this: http://www.harrisspeedworks.com/shop...cat=372&page=1
It looks good but the symmetry goes away once the purge gets added.

I have the HSW throttle body bracket and I like the way it looks. It looks a bit empty without a fuel solenoid but yours should fill it out nicely. Other than that I just put black loom around all of the wires.

i put my battery in the trunk of my T/A and mounted the solenoids in its place up front, hidden under a custom battery cover that i made 
sheetmetal, black spraypaint, and a little time. I used cardboard for a template
all lines, purge and N20 & fuel solenoids are hidden pretty good.

just go with a nice dp setup from dave 
Call dave(nitrous outlet) he will set you up with everthing you need. I've seen his brackets in person to put the two solinoids on the head and they look clean
