try mounting it forward. having it sideways can cause an internal whirlwind inside the bottle.

Yeah, that's fine. I had mine set like that. Rotate the bottle just a little bit though, so that the nozzle is pointed toward the back of the car a little (Might be already in the pic, can't tell very well though).

I would just mount it regular on a flat surface but the NX brakets kinda suck, no matter what way you move them the bottle still sits pretty much flat. Thats why I mounted it like that, so it would sit at more of an angle. Would I have any problem's the nitrous siphon tube not picking up the n20 right because it's getting forced to the side of the bottle instead of the bottom. Also what's the reason for turning the bottle slightly towards the back? Thanks

WTF? i really dont think thats true. Theres pressure inside the bottle (allot) i really dont think that they way you mount it is going to affect the way the gas flow's out of the bottle. Its just like a big aerosol can

It places the syphon tube in the best spot to pick up nitrous during acceleration.

The position of the bottle still has an affect flow. Have you ever held a paint can upside down? Nothing comes out but air. Same thing w/ a nitrous bottle.

Its not just a bunch of gas in a bottle. The nitrous is in liquid form inside the bottle.
