Looking like tomorrow will be the day. Lets spray!

Decided to start my install without the ARC bottle holder. I'm reaching out to all my fellow nitrous guys/gals for any and all info, hints, tips and tricks you can

Decided to start my install without the ARC bottle holder. I'm reaching out to all my fellow nitrous guys/gals for any and all info, hints, tips and tricks you can share in an attempt to help me breeze through my install. Anything at all, how you ran your hoses, your mounting locations for the purge unit as well as the Nitrous Management Unit, wiring of (those that have one) the NOS Mini Progressive controller. I really do appreciate the forums and all the help it has given me so far. Thanks folks

I was told if I went with the NOS Mini Progressive controller that I would no longer need the window switch as well as the TPS.

progressive controller is better. the window switch i had wired right to my TPS uotput wire. progressive controller will hook up in the same spot....window switch is cheaper

Progressive controller will ramp the the spray instead of a kick...

Ok so I'm good to go there. I'll definitely cover the hoses where they meet with the braid, great tip. Thanks

I would check out LS1techdotcom and in their nitrous section they have a sticky with a crap load of wiring schematics (that include the NOS mini), obviously you will have to tailor to our vehicle but it will give you a good start as to what goes where and how.
Here is the start of install.

You won't need the relay boards. More than likely your kit came with relays and all the bits and pieces. I just have those to keep everything organised and easy to wire up, certainly not needed.
Did you get the Zex kit with their NMU?
If you do get the nitrous board you will want the negative trigger for use with the NOS mini.

NMU is in there, If you think the nitrous board will make it easier for me to wire up then I'll get it. So I don't need the other two for sure, correct?
Here's the kit http://www.zex.com/zx/2007-current-n...us-systemhtml/

One is just a fuse block and the other is a dual relay board for bottle heater and remote bottle opener. They certainly are not needed, but I just wanted to have everything located in one spot in the hatch.
If I remember correctly the Zex NMU has a built in TPS switch so might want to watch the wiring of that. I do not know if that HAS to be wired up to make the box functional or not. I have never hooked up one of their "brains" (nmu).

Like all great plans......just got home from an overnighter. Shooting for the weekend. I'm still waiting to hear from Zex in regards to incorporating the Nos mini and their NMU.
madwi and KratikosG37 like this.

Spoke to Zex, gave me the info I needed to incorporate the NOS mini with the Zex NMU. No need for the Big Dog nitrous controller, plus it doesn't work with the NOS.
