Default Nitrous Blown Down Tube

I was wondering where everyone is mounting there blow down tubes. My bottle is mounted in the front center of my hatch area. I did it so it’s easily accessible and so I could fit my roof in the trunk still. I am going to run a 180* blow down tube through the floor but I wanted to see where everyone else had theirs.

I dont have any pics on me but I had dual bottles in my truck. Both the blow down tubes ran through the floor. I used a robber grommet around the tube and floor.

Right now I just have it like this since I’m not using the Nitrous. I have a 180* blow down tube I plan to use off the bottle where it’s mounted now. I just want to make sure I don’t hit anything drilling through the floor where my bottle currently is.

An electrical compression fitting (can be had in black plastic) makes for a clean, sealed exit thru the floor.

The compression fittings and grommets are a great idea

I used AN fittings and hose to route into the fender well.
