Curious to see how everyone has their bottles mounted. Pics would be awesome and also the size of the bottle would be great too. I'm looking to see if it's possible to hide a 15lb bottle or not. Thanks in advance.

i think your best bet is to put it in the back cubby hole and build a box to cover it. we did this to a friend of mine put a old sub on it.

I would like to see more installs of guys with 15lb bottle's if none then at least the 10lb bottles but none of the NANO's since I won't be running that set up. Trying to get an idea of how i'll mount mine. Also it would be preferred if it were a z06 too since that's what I have and there is not as much room as the coupe's.

Also if you guys have pictures of the gauge set up's you are running that would be awesome too. I'd just like to get a few ideas basically. I plan on picking up the MTX gauge for my car just not sure if i'll be getting another gauge with it. Thanks in advance guys!

Same length as a 15, little larger diameter. I decided to give it a shot over two tens.

That 20lb looks hugeeee lol. I bet it gets quite a few spray's before it's empty though. Yea I'm not looking to hide the 15lb bottle after finding out it's not possible. A 10lb bottle can barely fit down in that little cubby and I don't think I want just a 10lb since it won't last long at all.

Had to do a little modding on the radio box in the back drivers side hole but turned it around up on the inside wall and the bottle fit right over top of it. Think Corvette had nitrous in mind when they make those for us.
