Default nitrous ? where do i tap in?

I peiced together a nitrous kit but i'm having a hard time figuring out where i should tap into the manifold. My setup is a b16a with sk2 68mm tb and mani, stock motor, aem fpr, dc header, stage 3 6 puck clutch and full 2.5 exhaust. Its a wet kit, i'm still deciding on the shot either 50/75. I need to know where to put the fuel and nitrous lines on the manifold? like is it better to put the lines closer to the tb or in the middle of the manifold?
thanks

hopefully i posted this in the right forum

before the throttel body? i thought it was suppose to be after the tb? u might be right but i want a second opinion to be 100% sure. I was under the impression that only dry shots go before the tb:s but i'm a noob to this spray stuff.

You can put the noids anywhere as long as you have lines to reach. For best results closer is better. You want get your fuel from the filter or the rail.

2-1 t? the solenoids dont get connected to each other if thats what your thinking. if it came off a carb setup and you ditched the plate, did you get a nozzle yet?

1 line from fuel solenoid to the nozzle
1 line from n2o solenoid to the nozzle
1 line from fuel solenoid to fuel rail/filter
1 line from n2o bottle to n2o solenoid

make sense? the rest is wiring of the solenoids, master arm, WOT switch or button for activation. if all of this is difficult to figure out, you might want to get some professional help with the install and tuning of this or you are gonna be short a motor as of spray #1.

I'll take a couple pics of what all i have later tonight, i have

15lb bottle
line from bottle to no2 solenoid
no2 solenoid
fuel solenoid

I don't know what nozzles u are talkinga about:s

the no2 system will activate off a window safety swtich and wot switch.

i have already bought colder plugs and retard the timing 2 degrees.

I still need some lines for the fuel, i don't have an aftermarket fuel rail can i just T into the fuel filter?

I don't need a professional to hook it up. i just haven't found a good clear write up thats all.

now that i know the 2-1 t was a bad idea. where do the solenoids need to be as in relation to each other. like an inch apart? across from each other?

The nozzle jeffy is talking about is the Y shaped 2 to 1 nozzle that you tap into the intake about 3-6 inches from the TB. A nitrous and fuel line goes ito that nozzle so when you squeeze, both fuel and nitrous goins into that nozzle and it sprays into the direction of the TB butterflys...

ok, yeah you sound like you got it pretty much. take the double connect lines off of both solenoids, get like two sections of 1 foot line to go from that same spot on the solenoids to your nozzle/Y, and yes thats where the jets go and how thy get held down. yes you can tap into the fuel system at the filter.

search the ARCHIVES for the official nitrous thread, look for part 1, read that whole thing and then read part 2 that is on the first page in here usually. that should explain anything else you need to know. Good luck man

Haha yeah the Y nozzle not T.. but anyhow.. once you have all the pieces collected and have a fairly good sense of how nitrous works, you should be able to install it. As, Jeffy suggested, go check out the nitrous thread, tons of great info on there to squeeze safely without blowing your **** up cuz I nitrous can be very very addicting.. trust me, I know! Good luck and enjoy!
