ok so i kinda copied the kid with the sleeper nitrous build but mine is done and working on my car. it was very easy to install. it took me a little longer than it should of because i really took my time. you have already seen my switch in the pictures i posted. i mounted it the unit in the airbox. i ran the feed line out the back of the airbox and drilled a hole with a 3/4'' holesaw through the back of the airbox and through the fenderwell ran the line around the inside of the strut tower behind the black plastic liner. and down, i followed the brake lines back to the trunk area and thats where mine will be different from the norm, i dont have a spare tire well and have a custom fuel filler in the trunk. its flat. then up into the trunk to the bottle. now back up front i ran the vacuum lines out the front of the airbox and around toward the back of the engine and up into the valley where the fuel rails are and across the intake but under the snakes/intake runners. and to the fuel pressure regulator and to the spot on the intake where the line from the regulator used to go. so you really cant see them and if you do theres no way to tell where they go. ok now the nitrous line goes out the front of the airbox also and curls around to the bottom of the intake hose after the maf and about 6'' from the throttle body. just make sure the nozzle it facing the throttle body when your done. now the wires, the wires are really easy. the white one goes to the middle wire on the tps/throttle position sensor. and the red one has to go inside the car to your switch. and the other post of the switch has to run to a power wire. now i used a wire that was only hot when the key was on. im my case it was the radio volume button. because i have an Alpine deck. i dont use the buttons anyways. and the spot on the dash is for my switch. but this wire HAS to have the fuse between the switch and the power source. do not forget this. from here the instructions are dead on for making the nmu/nitrous management unit, work.

il post pictures when i get to work on monday and take some, the car is sittin my shop with a broken axle due to my weekend venture to the dragstrip. read all about it in my thread in the at the drags section.

cool beans. i just finished mine last week and threw the 55 shot in there to start... noticable but not enough :evilgrin: if i launched with it i spun all of first EASY but i wanna spin all of second :evilgrin: just threw in the 75 shot set of jets and tapped into the wire for the octane asd bar so i can retard the timing 3 degrees at the flick of a switch. now it really pulls!

k find the octane jumper. its located under the upper rad hose on the off the same loom as the cruise control plug is. it should just look like a connector with a little grey plug in it. pull that up and cut one of the wires (dosent matter what one) either solder and heatshrink wires to run to where your switch is going (mine is beside my Nitrious switch on my shifter cover) or crimp them. bring the wires in and put them on the switch. be sure to orient the switch so that off is the same way as on on the nitrious switch because you want to break the circiut not make it when you spray.
