Went to Summit today. Got my fuel pressure regulator, shift kit and transmission cooler. Got all the materials except for the fuel plumbing and line to finish the Maggie install, still need to machine my fuel rail for the OD though.

But the list is slowly getting shorter

I'm about past the buying and mired deep in installs. We probably put in 12 hours so far this weekend. I need a fuel line to flip the rails to finish the nitrous. Haven't even started on bushings yet.

PITA to mount

So quick question... Will there be any reason/advantage to swap out the plugs when I do my header install? I mean the plugs come out to put the headers in.

Mods include... Pfadt Lt's with Cats, Magnaflow resonated X-pipe, ADM Race Intake (scoop), Fluidampr 25% UDP, Vmax ported TB, factory NPP. I will end up getting the car dyno tuned.

We just realized the stupid bottle is in backwards. All the n2o will slosh away from the pickup tube when I stomp on it... Dammit.

Probably not. There shouldn't be anything wrong with the plugs unless you crack one during install. I had no problems doing the headers and not cracking plugs.

Looks like a clean install though!!

[thahemp]

It wasn't too bad. It usually comes together better the 2nd time through anyways. Funny mistake considering how much we discussed the pickup tube!

No. I didn't even take them out when I did my install. Make sure to look at where the oil dipstick goes and check the passenger side for a screw that is sticking out of the frame. If the screw is there cut it off before putting the headers in.

Haha yeah I was thinking it might be better to instal it sideways. Placing it right against the back of the rear seats.

[thahemp]

I'm gonna flip it around 180* and try to run the line through the interior trim. If that doesn't work I'll have to drill a hole. Even sideways it seems like it could starve as the bottle gets past 1/2 empty. There aren't very many ideal locations to drill holes for the brackets back there.

[SolomonAKOO]

Yeah that's true. Did you put the lines through the hole next to the battery?

[thahemp]

Yeah. Through the rubber plug.
