Wait, so you are riding around with 40 lbs of nitrous (and however much the nitrogen weighs) for a single stage? Are you intending on hitting it with 500 at every street light, or was this meant to be more show than go?

No sir. It's a fully leather wrapped, double-french stitched interior.

Thanks man. If it blows up, it blows up. I know messing around with these power levels it's a matter of time.

Thank you! But no sir. It's part of the 5% of work I didn't actually do. I did design it though.

I think I've made it very clear it's built for GO.

Yes, it's on a single stage but a progressive controller will manage the entire 500 shot.

And no, the n2o won't be something that is used as often as light to light. NA it has ~515rwhp and if I need to use the power of the bottles behind me, the option will be most always available (kinda why I went with 4 n2o bottles and 4 NANOs.) Hope this answers your questions

Nice man, I'm actually re-working the body of my catfish while I wait on more parts to come in. Not nearly to the extent as yours but it won't look as good either

Sick work, def gonna read through your build thread and copy a thing or two.

Thanks guys. I measured my stock fog housings and found halos (in all sizes) on ebay (in all colors). I just had my project manager figure out how to adapt them to the stock housings. They are afixed to the outter part of the fog light lens, but I honestly cannot tell, even when up close (which I thought I would mind). They look GREAT in person. Wiring was very straight forward too.
