Default NX/Nitrous Outlet EFI System Installation Help Needed!

Hi, fellas. I got my NX EFI wet system in yesterday and started to do the installation today. I got all the preliminary stuff done and now I'm getting ready to do the wiring and run the long nitrous supply line from the bottle situated in the trunk up to the engine compartment. Can someone give me some pointers on the best way to do this? Also, I have the NX switch console assembly which I know fits in the ashtray compartment like a glove. Can someone tell me the steps I need to take to properly install it? I assume I need to remove the center console and stereo head unit bezel, but I'm not sure how to go about it properly.

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Did you get a TPS module to connect to the relay or are you using the microswitch? I am (got it but havent installed yet) the ZEX TPS module. If you need to know, the TPS wire off the TB is dark blue on the 5 wire plug.

To run your line, I would go down the drivers side, pull the drv. front wheel and panels which will expose the fire wall. Remove the panels inside by the dead pedal and the upper cover. Now you will have clear acces to drill a 1" hole through the fiberglass wall. Use a home depot grommet to be safe, I didn't dut filed/sanded down the f.glass so there were no sharp edges. There is a thread on how to get through the fire wall, a search should turn it up pretty easy.

Hope this helps...

Brian

Hi, Brian. Yes, I have the NX TPS switch. I appreciate the info on that. That's also for the info regarding the running the line along the driver's side.

No problem, I have been working on something similar with my Cryo2 system. I am using the zex switch becaue it will trigger the co2 and the no2 when I do the intercooler ring via a relay bank. I will have 2 10lbs. bottles in a V formation behind the seats. i use the trunk alot and didn't want to loose the room, plus i will be doing a stereo in the future i am sure. I need to find a machined down 10lbs bottle to match the c02 bottle. Anyone got one?
