Default Nitrous Install started

I got the solenoids back yesterday and that was the last part I needed to start the installation of my Nitrous set up. I got off to a pretty good start tonight and now have the nitrous, fuel and purge solenoids mounted and the nozzle installed with the lines. My darn cameras batteries died so I will get pics tomorrow and post. I had to notch my MAF housing to get the nozzle where I wanted it but it was a three min. task with the dremel and now the nozzle fits nicely. My set up is based on Compucar plate system that I have removed the plate from and replaced with a cold fusion pro nozzle system. Some of the extras include a FJO progressive controller and a bottle heater. I will probably do all the wiring tomorrow and mount the bottle and heater sometime this week. I plan on mounting the switches under the radio in the bezel but have to see if there is room behind the bezel, if not I will fab a plate and mount it in the cubby under my radio. If anyone has any pics of their switch mountings I would love to get some ideas also purge discharge locations.

I suggest you run your purge discharge to a location which is visible. This way you can simply purge until you see white. Over purging is a waste of N20 and believe you me, it goes quick enough without wasting any. Without a thought, I almost routed mine to the side gills of the car. After a little harder thinking I decided that was not a great idea.

I extended mine with some clear aquarium type hose and ran it up to and through a small hole in the hood weatherstrip just below wiper on passenger side where it blows up in front of the passenger windshield where I can see it but it's not "in my face".

Here's a couple of pics of mine.
