N2O incognito install

[Justin86]

Well as you can see an empty looking trunk and a mildly modded engine, just the basics.

Well let’s take a closer look and what do we find, OMG a NX 10lbs bottle, solenoids, and a purge kit.

This is pretty straight forward, an incognito nitrous install. The spare tire well is the best place to hide a bottle, throw the plastic cover over it then carpet nobody knows better. If you don’t all ready have a kit it will provide the basic info on how to wire it up, etc. First find how you are going to run the main line to the engine and if the solenoids will fit in the wiper arm area. I ran my line from the trunk and under the passenger side carpet, under the dash and drilled a hole to run it in the wiper blade area.

I just had to remove the side trim to pull the carpet back to run the line. It is best to remove the dash and the blower for drilling, and wiring it up. When you have it clear where you want to set up everything start removing what is necessary and begin drilling. When drilling metal you want to start with a very small bit then work your way up (very important!). Drill the 4 holes in the trunk to bolt down the bottle, a ¼” bit will work. In the engine bay you have a series of holes to drill. About a 5/8” to run the main line and some wires between the wiper area and under the dash. Then there is the two lines feeding the engine and one fuel line going to the solenoid, the 1/2” will work. To mount the solenoids you will need to get some small bolts and nuts to mount them, and the according bit to drill the holes.
Here you can see my in fuel line far left, and the fuel & nitrous lines far right going to the intake. To hind the stainless lines use plastic wire cover; I had white in this case.

Drilling the intake make sure you have a big enough bit for it I think ¾”, but double check. Also when they say keep it about 6” from the TB they are serious, most cause trying to get your fingers in the piping to hold the nut for the net is a pain in the ass.

Now with the wiring…….. The kit will come with diagrams to wire it up so I won’t go into that. With the dashed removed it will make wiring easier and cleaner, I also pulled the fender so I could run a power from the battery to inside the car. But where to hind the activation switch, purge switch, and WOT switch? First off the WOT switch could be hidden under the throttle pedal, but this is a serious pain in the ass, and best just to hook it up to the TB. The activation switch the kit comes with is out but I got your typical arming switch at local parts store $6. You can hind it almost any where in the car, under the steering column, glove box, center consol, or under the seat. I stuck mine in the center consol just to keep it simple… For under the seat you will want to make a small panel that will bolt to the floor and it can be used to add other switches. Just a small piece of sheet metal with a 90 deg bend in it.

Then placing the purge activator, I removed my steering cover, drilled a hole and put it in place.

Once you have it all wired up and all lines in place double check all your work and make sure it is all perfect. Before putting everything back together give it a test and make sure it all works properly. Nothing that will piss you off more is having to pull your dash again because you didn’t do a good job connection your wires.
Now go have some fun beating up on the local slugs

yo justin, u sure you wanna put the electrical solonoids where water is supposed to go???? i would put them somwehere else if i was you.

[86LXItooFAST4me]

just heat shrink all the conections and cover it with plastic and insolation. wouldnt that work?


and whats the low down with you people not having a "little black box"??

[smufguy]

and whats the low down with you people not having a "little black box"??

prolly no inspection for those fellas thats why. Lucky bastards

[Justin86]

yea that what I later did was use shrink rap, but I have had it in there over a yr and no problems. oh and no emissions testing either. :D

[86LXItooFAST4me]

so do you still get that damn PGM-EFI light?

[Accordtheory]

so how much are you spraying?

[AccordEpicenter]

get a bottle heater and remote valve opener

[Strugglebucket]

hey, in that spot the heat from the exhaust will warm it up, lol.
'cept for that 50lbs of dynamat he's got in there.

[AccordEpicenter]

yeah. shitcan the dynamat, that stuff is heavy

[Justin86]

well even with all I have in there the car is still at a good weight, I'll probly really strip it down by summer.
I'm running a 75 shot right now.
Yea I still have the light on and probly will until I swap the ECU.
bottle heater and opener would be nice but i need to save up for another project, and I'm allmost done with my current one.

[2old_honda]

:cool:

[86LXItooFAST4me]

hey justin, did you use a kit for that roll cage or did you just custom build it?

[Justin86]

custom ;)

[86LXItooFAST4me]

damn, i need to get a welder

[hondamanlxi]

hey why do you still have a charcoal canister? (thing with 2 red lines)

[gp02a0083]

dude u see that seam sealer , musta been fixed at one point cuz that dont look factory ( i should know i worked in a body shop for a few years) any way yah did ya at least get a rubber gromet for where the u drilled the lines for it

it looks nice only thing i would get like the other say is the remote valve and the warmer , but i wouldnt put the button ther id go and actually use 1 of the 4 horn buttons

[gp02a0083]

no wait my bad didnt see the overspray on teh SS my bad

[Justin86]

The seam sealer is stock, and honda love to use it to death. No ruber at the holes that just plastic cover over the lines.

The canister is still there cause I have no need to remove it for now, well for awhile at least. I'm going to mount my battery there so I will pull it and relocate the fuel filter on the other side of the dog bone.
