where do u hide your bottle

I was thinking of hiding a bottle in the spare tire spot put the battery in the storage part on the LH side. But what if I get hit on the side with the bottle will I go boom! Pics will be nice I have a sub box in too and I don't think it will fit under it. Or I can use a lot of little bottles like dominic in fast and the furious 1 lol.

You will not go boom.

Wouldnt hide it in the most obvious place for someone to look either. I.E the spare tire spot.

Much better places, just got to be creative. If you do hide it there. Mount it at the right angle, secure it and have the right safety equipment, like the blow down tube. and dont route the lines through the car. Theres other options to that too

Re: where do u hide your bottle

I did a street car 4 a guy and we had 2 bottles. one "fake" one mounted in the hatch area,we could take the line off to show people and the "real" one under the pass side of the dash..

I "hide" my -2- bottles in the back seat, the fold down helps prop my seat up.

Re: where do u hide your bottle

Get creative with the bottles in the seats and stuff. The sneaky pete type little bottles would be awesome for this. Could mount them in the backs of the seats or under them. Maybe even have SOME room to mount them in front of the rear end and the back of the rear seat well. Just gotta experiment. Under the dash would be trick!!

Re: where do u hide your bottle

On pimp my rides they hid subwoofers in a pair of fake nitrous bottles. So I say you should build a fake subwoofer box, and hide your nitrous bottle in there.

All my solonoids are mounted underneath and behind the passenger headlight and purge comes out inbetween the fender and splash guard. Lines are under carpet and routed in the fender. Fuel is in wire loom and covered with a T where it connects to the fuel lines over behind the battery.

Re: where do u hide your bottle

Depends, how much time do I have to hide it before the cop shows? :P

Just kidding, I don't run Nitrous Oxide, but if I did the spot to hide it I would choose would most likely be in the compartment as shown above... Or have it in very back of trunk and have cover over it. Just like your sub or so.

Re: where do u hide your bottle

Like I said before, the solonoids are underneath the passenger headlight under the car along with the nozzle. You can see the feed line and wiring wrapped up in wire loom through the fender in the pic.

Re: where do u hide your bottle

Gut the back of the dash (remove the ac stuff) and put it there the heat from the motor will also keep the bottle warm and leave a fake line were the spare tire goes haha
