Yea,, that thing is in a heck of a spot,, I set the timing with an old school
inductive timing light while the blower was off.

I didn't think it would be a good idea to mount the boost or fuel pressure gauge inside the car. So I stuck them outside


I got the main activation switch for the nitrous mounted and wired -just say go-

bump just because i like it more everytime i see it. Very unconventional, very inconvenient and maybe not as efficient as possible, but if i had the stuff id do it in a heartbeat.

My only drawback is im really not a fan of just cutting out the stock hood, just thinking of an aftermarket hood you could modify for a better look but all i can come up with for fit would be a prostock style hood and thatd sit even higher. you couldnt really show off the blower and youd look ridiculous at walmart . Theres gotta be a way

Ew. No, cutting the stock hood is definitely the better option.
