Default Nitrous install part 1

Ok,
I have been real busy the past week but here are a coupld of shots of the install so far. I am waiting on my 14 gauge relay harness and will be fabing a plate to mount the 4 relays and the FJO progressive controller early next week. I hope to get the bottle mounted this weekend and complete the install next week, then its off to the dyno for tune.

Here are the solenoids and nossel mounted


Here is the plate I fabed for the Arm switch, Bottle heater Sw and the purge button.

Looking good! That switch panel is really nice.

I'm sure it's the just the way it looks in the pics but I have to ask, does your hood have clearance to close? Just wondering because with my L98 you cant go much higher than the throttle body with anything without the hood hitting it when closed.

Well anyways, it's looking great so far and keep us updated as you go.

The hood is closing without hitting. I was concerned as well but not a problem so far. I might take some clay and see how close it is and drop the fuel gauge a bit.

What system are you running, and are you going to run progressive?

Compucar but only because I got it cheap, very cheap. I have already sold the compucar plate system and swaped to a nozzel and will be going to NX niods as soon as I get a few more $$$. Yes I am going progressive and it is the $200 one on this page.
