nitrous
#17
i just picked up a 15 lb nitrous bottle, brackets, straps and a bottle warmer for $100.00. how hard is it to set up the nitrous lines by my self?? i have swapped motors, turboed cas and swapped trans. but never nitrous. how hard is it?? and would it be better to have a shop put it in??

It's pretty easy, but if you've never done it before, buy a kit (you can get them without a bottle from every manufacturer I know of) and follow the directions carefully.
There's nothing particularly tricky or hard about doing a nitrous install, but there's definitely a right way and a wrong way. A good place to start would be www.nosnitrous.com or www.barrygrant.com - both websites have good FAQ pages and kit instructions available online if you poke around a little.

I'm not sure if I have this mixed up, but a dry kit is supposed to be easier to install than a wet kit, because a wet kit taps into the return fuel line, so there's a bit more work involved. If I have that backwards someone correct me.

I prefer wet, because I feel that it gives you better control of how much fuel is being delivered.
Wet systems get their fuel either from a test port on the fuel rail or from a "T" inserted into the fuel line that supplies the rail. The return line shouldn't be used for this, because it has a constantly varying fuel pressure that will actually get lower the harder the engine is being pushed.
