Any pics of your nitrous controls?? did you cut up the interior at all? Not sure where I want my controls? There are in the glove box right now, which hides them, but I am not sure if that is going to be practical??

i cut the bottom off of my ashtray and made up a small stainless bracket that just slid in from the bottom tightly. had two holes drilled in it already.

no cutting other than a cheap ashtray..:)

and a cheap cigarette lighter for my LED switch so i dont forget to shut the system off.

the way i wired mine was...toggle to left is heater on and to the right is system ARMED. purge is the red button which is NOT hooked up yet..i wanna get used to the extra HP before i hook it up.

so basically it is like this...heater on/OFF/ARMED

You gotta be ******** me! They fit perfectly in the ashtray, and all you have to do is drill a hole the size of a dime. Leave them in the glovebox.

I found a well kept secret, a company called "Dyno Tune". They have anything needed for nitrous installs. They have a 2-1/16" gauge that actually house four switches and indicator lights:

Armed - on/off
bottle open - momemtary open/close
bottle heater - on/off
purge - momentary on

I will post some pictures next week. I also bought the motor driven bottle opener, an electronic nitous gauge for the cabin and a pressure switch (in lieu of a thermostat).

The ash tray worked for me as well. :laugh:
I used a electric window toggle switch to open and close the remote bottle opener, and have a lighted rocker switch to arm the system, and one for the bottle heater. No purge.

I hid one under the dash above my right leg and the other under the drivers seat under my left leg.

Dyno Tune looks like they have some neat stuff. I need a purge and I am wondering how theirs compares to NX and others. It sure is a lot cheaper.


purge

Any purge system is kind of fail safe, reliability isn't a huge issue. The pressure creates the seal, the coil merely lifts against the pressure, what is the worst that can happen, it won't lift.

Take a look at their bottle open and remote nitrous gauge.
