Would like to compliment BDR on the fuse panel layout which made my nitrous system electrical installation a breeze. It was very nice to have 2 unused fuse blocks that were fed from the ignition switch. I was able to run all my nitrous accessories from these extra fuse slots. I added 4 additional switches to my dash for a bottle opener, bottle heater, nitrous power, and purge switch. I ran all these from the spare blocks, man what a breeze. No need to splice into anything else and the electrical setup is nice neat and tucked away.

Would like to see the battery cutoff switch terminals (located in the trunk) covered with a plastic cover. While installing my system I had the battery cutoff switch off and removed. I did not realize that the terminals in the rear were exposed. You cannot see them due to the battery being in the way. I thought if I avoided contact with the actual battery terminals, there would be no other "hot" sources. Well, while feeding my braided nitrous feed line, it came into contact with the cutoff switch terminal and rapidly heated up and started to catch my carpet on fire and burning the insulation off my positive battery wire. After difusing the situation and setting off all the smoke alarms in my garage, I realized what had happened. Luckily the burnt carpet is not noticeable and the positive battery wire can be replaced. This is a small request and would literally cost BDR pennies.

Just trying to help,
Bryan.

Wow! You've got smoke detectors in your garage? How cool is that?

Thanks for the heads up Bryan. I'll see that the factory gets the input.

I didn't get a change to drive it, maybe Spring Fling 04', but I thought that monster of yours was pretty peppy in it's own right. Nothing like a little NOOOOOOOOOS to wake it up in the morning. You're not trying to one-up Rogers now are you?

Actually, I had most of the components to put this nitrous system together from my previous Cobra. I didn't really want to sell the system, so I spent more money of course, and have a really professional system in this car. I can't wait to get it out. Not just for the nitrous, but I replaced my air gap intake with a victor. And during the install process I discovered my mechanical secondaries on my double pumper were never coming fully open. After cutting a screw and relocating my cable connection, I have full secondary operation. They only opened to about 45 degrees before. Pretty excited to get the car out and see how it runs. Just starting the car in front of the garage and giving it a quick hit on the throttle, it jumps to the 7k rev limiter almost instantly. Seems to be much more responsive than before, like I said, I'm anxious to get it out!

Rogers knows that I can not let my car stay in the same status for too long. There are always improvements to make and I always end up spending all my wifes shoe money to make them. It won't be long before I'm on to a new project/system for this car. I think I'll talk Rogers into buying a fire surpression system with me and we'll install at the same time. More fun that way.

Cool. Just make sure the bottle is full for Spring Fling 04'.

Don't worry Boudy, I have 2 10lb bottles that will be full before I load the car onto the trailer. Can't wait to go! Rogers and I have already booked our rooms......Later.
