Started my nitrous install :D

i got my kit in last night and started setting up everything in the engine bay and electrical. i must say, i hate the engine bay area on a cobalt. intake is to close to the frame and if you go under the intake the cables get to close to the fan shroud. its not exactly the best looking job but it will do.

im going to install an off/on switch and run the on to the <_| arrow thingy (pardon termonalogy) on the steering wheel. that is the only thing reachable to me. the inside is going to be pretty stealth and look pretty much stock

well i got it all done and everything works great.i started off spraying 50 and after getting use to that ( i wanted more lol) i jumped it up to 75 and i love it its so addicting to have that extra power sitting in my hand. everyone at work was making me believe that i was going to blow something up the first time i used it. sofar i have hit it maybe 10 times and its doing great, i think they were trying to mess with my mind. ill post pics tomorrow for anyone interested in it

that will be hard to hide the bottle really good, i dont think the spare tire well has enough space for the bottle

Just a little detonation.
I think we got the problem solved, Made a couple good runs tonight. seems to be doing alot better.
Can't seem to get the afr over 11.7 but good enough.
Better than what gm had (10.3). Oh ended up doing the 50 shot just could not get the 75 shot clean.

For a super-stealth install, I've always wanted to put the fog lights on a relay for the headlights, then use the foglight output for nitrous arming.

All the wiring is in place, and it's as stealthy as you can get.

To add to it, when done this way, you have a nice little "nitrous armed" indicator, right in your gauge cluster. AND it turns off with the car automatically
