I had one, but I never installed it. What do you mean by where to mount it? You mean the bottle? Unlike in the movies, you want to mount the bottle facing forward, exactly like this:

hey this is a little off topic but do you have to get a dyno tune for say a 100hp shot or can you order one like from bamachips or something

I am pretty sure VMP Tuning does it. I'd bet Bama would do it too

I have the ZEX kit. VPM done my tune and said the 75 shot could be run with no special mods in the tune but if you go to 100 or 125they done a tune for me that retards the timing 2 deg. Then more retarding of the timing for higher shots. They said the car would not run good for everyday driving with the 2 degree retard tune. I love my kit. I have a MMR CAI, dual exhaust with crossover, 373 gears with T-LOC, JBA wires, and the SCT tuner with the VPM 93 octane tune. Car runs great.

I run the 93 tune (which has no special settings for the NOS) with the 75 shoot and have run about 3 bottles through it with no problem. I dont know about a 100 shoot. Contact VPM and tell them you are interestedin using the 100 shoot and see if you need a tune. They told me YES! Do you know NOT to spray running less than 3000rpm? Also do NOT leave your bottle open all the time when not driving. It can leak into the solinoids and then into the intake and blow the top of your motor off when you crank it. It will also leak down through the lines and you will come out and have an empty bottle. I have a couple friends that have been racing for 30 years and run NOS all the time and have had that happen. Get the remote opener for your kit so you can open and shut from in the car when needed. You may already know this. Have you installed it yet? I would be happy to email you some pictures of mine to give you some ideas if you want. Please let me know if I can answer any questions for you.

I think that the nitrous kit might have some difficult wiring, thats what concerns me with getting a kit. Is this correct?

It is not to hard. Just follow the directions and you should be fine. You have to hook up a relay but it shows you how.
