Took me some time but i see it. Very good job!

yeah, if you say no, I don't think they can make you. It's illegal search and seizure.

I was just browsing through the Customer Cars section of Nitrous Outlet and found this

I didn't feel like arguing. If I said no, pretty sure he'd be a bigger dick and get me for something else...no cats...headers...etc

He asked if I "had gears" when I popped the hood I knew I was fine after that

Years ago, you had to get creative. Now, with Nitro Dave's Halo kit, it's ridiculously easy. Wish it had been out when I was running a dry kit. I had to fabricate brackets and stuff to fit everything inside my lid. Now, it's pretty much just a bolt on. Put the solenoids in the front bumper support, wire loom the lines, run the lines up underneath the air box to the halo, and you're done.

Easiest way to hide it...... DON"T OPEN THE HOOD.

Nitrous in a bag kits are pretty easy to hide too.

Not invisible, but for the average tard in a parking lot -- they don't notice anything. Like someone else said, its getting them to look elsewhere. As far as I'm concerned, the performance gains from the STB are minimal, however with a couple stickers, it blocks line of sight and is one of the first things people look to when the hood is popped.

One thing is for sure. It is impossible to hide the bottle. Well I have ideas, but they are costly and extensive.

Take out your jack and spare and mount the bottle back there. Then place the plastic cover back over it. There you are, hidden bottle.



If there was sarcasm in your statement, I totally didn't see it.

Hiding the bottle? Hmmm... inside the headlight area on vettes or TA's, gymbag in the back seat, small bottle inside the center console, small bottle behind door panel (can't roll window all the way down), small one in glove box or behind it, and my personal favorite.....on the driver's side where a stealth box goes, then put a false face with a woofer cone (just the trim ring and cone no basket or magnet) to cover it.

sombodys been whatching justin bircham do nitrous in doors. but the prob with that is you cant roll it down at all. you have to remove the window gear assembly, pin the window in place. then you can only fit a 5lb in there. and please dont condone this crap i get tired of people asking me to roll my windows down. its very popular in the mustang world.

I don't know who Justin Bircham is, I just have seen people put Sneaky Pete bottles in there.

I by no means condone putting a high pressure bottle anywhere that it could burst. I was just listing all the places that I have seen bottles "hidden".

Yeah, everyone knows that trick. And all the others mentioned. Too easy to check those places and "my window motor is out man" only goes so far. Not to mention I would not waste my time with a small bottle. Maybe a few small ones but a single 5lb hidden somewhere is only good for so long. Like 2 passes with good pressure then it will start dropping. Maybe that is all you need but it would be a bitch to take out to refill all the time. I want to try and hide a 15lb bottle where it would be impossible to find. Maybe even rig a push system to that.
