i think hes just using the movie as an example of vin trying to "hide" them. which is a valid question. but i'ld go to a site that sells nitrous bottles and accessories and see what you can find

Smallest nitrous bottles are 10oz, only enough for one squeeze, but you can hide it nearly anywhere, in seat padding, roll cage bars, whatever. Normal "small" bottles are 2lb and 5lb bottles, much smaller than the 10lb ones.

You simply tie them together before the solenoids, same as a dual-bottle setup with big bottles.

Wire up what exactly? You would need two remote openers, a Y block for the lines coming out of both bottles, everything else is just the same as a single bottle setup.

Might as well tie them together, more stable bottle pressure

You would need dual openers and heaters for max effect though, which would dramatically increase the cost, but it would look really great setup like that.

Unless you are going with a direct port or multi stage, it wouldn't cost that much I don't think. Figure about $600 for a kit with everything, including the DBW window switch (awesome piece, I used one on dad's truck), then another bottle ($150 tops), two openers and heaters ($600ish used? $800 new). Like 1500 tops. And thats severe overkill, like a showcar setup. Remote openers are really a waste IMO, remove them and I could build that whole system for under $1000 with new NOS parts

No, only one set of solenoids, switches, all that good stuff. Only thing you need 2 of would be the bottles, unless you were doing a 2 stage setup or something tricky like that.

Window switch just controls the firing of the solenoids. Electrical wiring is separate from the nitrous/fuel lines going from the bottle/rail to solenoids to nozzle.

Basic diagram : Ign 12v Power --> activation switch --> window switch --> relay for solenoids --> ground.

Relay is wired up as normal, trigger circut is the one above, the load circut just goes from batt 12V to relay to solenoids to ground.

Too bad you're not closer to me, i'd hook ya up. I would love someone to spend some money and do a really nice system that I could install. I've had one guy bring me a brand spanking new ZEX kit, which was nice, but its just regular parts, and the setup for dad was all new Holley parts, with the window switch, everything hidden underhood, bottle mounted totally OEM looking under the rear seat

My setup and most of the ones I do for people are just basic and kinda rigged, but nice stuff is much more fun to do.
