sweet, just wondering if you had any pics of the install, curious to see how people have done it... i'm kinda wondering how to mount it, did you just install right on the side of the box(the nozzle outlet) w/a t-type fitting, so that the solenoid sits on its side, and then vent it out your cowel? what wire did you tap into for the 12v source. i also have a autometer bottle pressure gauge, i install the main fitting for the gauge on the feed line before the box right? also would having a in dash nitrous gauge, create me some probs at tech? i know... its a pretty simple install just looking for some input. thanks for your guys help!

personally, i'm not so crazy about the idea of having over 1,000 PSI of NOS in the cabin, but thats just me.

as for the purge kit, tap it right before the solenoid and vent it wherever you please. if you can see the sprayl, you can tell when you don't need anymore purgin, but if you hide it it won't be AS noticeable... decisions decisions.... i purge out my old windshield squirters since i had to take out washer fluid resevoir when i turbo'ed her.

so you installed the purge kit on the main feed line b4 the solenoid, ok for some reason i thought you installed it after, but i think i am mistaken. thanks for the info...yeah not too sure about the gauge, didn't think it was that safe either... magine that letting loose in the cab

thats always been my fear. with a high quality ss line and earls fittings i would feel safer, but definatly not as safe as if i didn't have it.

for sure, i'm hoping the autometer kit is fine, you would think so... what kit and size shot do you run on your combo?

ok. This is what we got. My kit is mounted on the firewall right next to the fusebox. It purges out of the cowl.

My bro's kit is mounted behind the front bumper (where a CAI filter would sit) He is all about stealth, and his purge valve vents into the radiator.


Pics of my setup:

thats ok, thanks for the attempt. um, where would the fitting go for the pressure gauge? would that go before the purge kit? thanks for your help!
