My Nitrous Set-Up is Finished! Well, kinda... **Lots of PICS
I finished up with installing all the nitrous components I currently have today. I'm still waiting on my NX Fire & Ice Pressure Controller, NX Nitrous Filter, and a NOS tube bender to finish the tube for the purge. I'm also waiting on the DGM Carbon Fiber Loom Cover set. I was going to install the NX Bottle Opener I won on EBay, but it doesn't fit right. It seems like it doesn't want to fit with the 45 degree nozzle on my bottle. Enjoy the pics. I know the engine bay is dirty.
Here's some pics of what I started out with...
I bought some extra relays to use for the purge and the pressure controller when I get it...
I have to thank Billy (04 Red Apple) for helping me out every step of the way on this project. He gave me all the info I could ask for and made me these brackets for the solenoids and for mounting the bottle brackets in the bed...
This is the adapter bracket Billy made me to attach to the solenoid bracket so I could mount it to the master cylinder bolts. It fit perfect...
After I drilled the holes for the solenoids and attached them together, I painted them black...
Here's where I decided to mount the gauge and the switch center...
I also bought some of these from McMaster-Carr to use for the connections in the bed for the bottle opener and the pressure controller...
Billy also hooked me up with a section of wiring tray so I could make the install a little neater. I bought some L-Brackets from Lowes and modified them to use with the tray...
I used this Earls 90 degree swivel fitting to tap into the Aeromotive distibution block for the fuel...
And here's the bottle opener, but I don't think it's the right one because it doesn't fit right...
And here's a bunch of pics of the set-up...
Here's where I ran the grounds for the relays and the controller. And also where I tapped the power from...
And here's where I tapped into the TPS signal wire for a WOT signal for the controller. I also tapped into a coil wire for the RPM signal. I tried to make it looks as neat as I could...
Some bed shots...
Here's the bottle pad I got from Race Tested. It looks good and it'll keep the bottle from getting scratched up during re-fills.
I put some velcro strips on the inside of the bottle brackets to keep them from scratching the bottle...
And here are my weathertite connectors waiting for the bottle opener and the pressure controller...
Here's where I relocated my switches for the IC and the E-Fan since I put the switch center where they use to be. I have since hidden the wires.
That's about it. It's jetted for a 75 shot right now, but I may move up to a 100 shot later down the road. Sorry I didn't do a How-To on this, but if anyone has any questions about the install or needs any part #'s let me know.
If anyone has any suggestions or ideas to help me better this set-up, I'm all ears...
