So my buddy came up with a kit for 50$ sans bottle. Trying to figure out where to mount the control module. My engine is all stock with a stock intake tube and airbox still. I do not see anywhere big enough on the passenger side to mount the Zex control box. Considering a BBK CAI intake to clear up some room on the passenger side fender.

What says you Stangnet?

He's talking about the management unit box. With a BBK CAI mine fit where the airbox used to be. Other than that, you have very few options due to line length

This was with a K&N filter on the stock elbow. Didn't really love the way it looked but I hadn't gotten the BBK CAI yet (which was a waste IMO) so thats where mine went.

take off the wipers then take off the cowl vent put the box close to the passaenger side there is a ton of room for it and no one will know its there. Drill a hole almost even to the intake tube and run the line right into it, cover it with some split tubbing and your done, not really but close to it

Hmm, thanks for the pics/ideas guys. I don't think the kit I have is for a Mustang. It's a bigger box that looks exactly like the picture I posted. I might try the cowl thing this weekend.

The box you have is the same one i have its an older one and for a dry kit. The box that you see in the other pictures is newer and from a wet kit.

So where are you guys pulling the N20 line through the car and into the engine bay from? I didn't really see any holes in the firewall to run it through.

Grommet on the pass. Side behind the glove box. Its for the harness to go through but there's room for a nitrous line. That's how I always did mine
