Yeah, I was eyeballing that silver looking tube coming up right under the mouth of the TB. Very stealth indeed! I would have probably wrapped that silver tube with some loom to disguise it better (if that's the fogger line!)

I once knew a guy who ran his through the air filter and up inside the inlet tubing. It was completely hidden.

Well damn dude. What size bottle is that? That's like 2lbs, what's that worth, half a pass? I see where you plummed the nitrous into the intake, that is pretty sneaky.

No actually its a 15lb bottle. And yeah that silver looking tube is heat resistant wire loom covering it. Been meaning to paint it black. I regular wire loom but the heat from the long tubes actually melted it. And yea hollywood the purge kit went in with the complete install and its hidden as well. lol Purges out between the passenger fender and cowl panel. Once I paint that silver loom black its going to be damn near hard to find it. lol. And I am in pandoras temple just put the 2 shields of haiti and zeus on the door to open it.

Why does the strut tower brace look all weird at the bend by the TB?

(hit 1k posts finally) Thats because this is the stock strut tower brace modified to fit like the 351 brace.

That's not a 15lb bottle. A 15lb bottle is huge. A 10lb bottle, if mounted correctly goes from the bottom to the top of the trunk.

I agree that is no 15lb bottle, 15's are friggan big (and your better off with 2 10's or 2 5lb bottles as 2 bottles will keep higher pressure vs a large single bottle). Since it is such a close up shot its hard to get a handle on the actual size but it does look kind of small for a 10lb even but I have seen fatty short 10lbers. I have seen 10lb bottles mounted under the seat before with a LOT of padding removed and the seat still had a little "hump" to it but it was nothing a sweater in the back seat did not hide well.

IMHO, I have always been up front and no desire to hide the bottle. That said I do appreciate the time it takes to think out how to make it as less stand out-ish as possible.

That looks like a 5lb bottle tops. Unless it is super long. Keep in mind, the bottle is suposed to be mounted with the nose up and facing forward.

In fact on the pic of the bottle zoom in on the top of the label and read it. But if thats still not enough for you here are more pics.

Bear in mind that I never said it was easy fit. I spent about 8 hours doing this install to make sure everything was hidden and fit well.

As per instructions the nose is mounted face down at a 45* angle when mounted parallel to the axle. Because the siphon tube is on the side of the nose. The opener valve is on the top.

Thanks I like to 15lb bottle has lasted an insane amount of shots, lol. I think 10lb is just more common because thats what usually comes with the kit.

Thats a clean setup man If you get the chance, could you post more pictures of your bottle mount? I didn't even expect a 10 lb would fit in there, and you shoehorned a 15! I'm curious to see how that all works.

Great installation! Amazing...you didn't use the billet bottle mounts i gave you? and where did you mount the purge line? did you hide that too?

and yes that's the newer style 15lbs bottle i sold to him , I have the same kit as well but i didn't mount it like that or i didn't even think about mounting it under the back seat...urgh~ lol

Putting your hand in the pick really made the bottle jump out as a 15lb-er. Big congrats for getting that sucker in there. It really did not look like a 15lb-er in the first pic.

The thing some buddies and I found out is the larger bottles do give you more n2o but the psi change is a diminishing return effect. Since the volume and psi is in one container you get a bigger psi drop vs. having 2 10lb bottles that share the psi from 2 separate cylinders.

That said I agree a single 10lb bottle on a 150+ shot kinda sucks...on a 150 shot its like 3-4 passes and maybe some weak "playing" around single gear pulls. When I ran a 125 shot it was a nice middle road, got a solid 4-5 passes and some "messing" around single gear fun left.
