Nitrous guys

where do you guys have your dump valve running off? I finally want to take the car to the track and need to put one in. It's what's been preventing me from going

Perhaps the most insightful quote of the day.

I can't run at one of the "better" tracks in my area because I don't have a blow-down tube.

If I ever get one, I'm going to have it run down into the spare tire well. There's a plug that can be popped out (to drain water that gets into the trunk). I initially popped out the plug to run my nitrous line, but decided to run the line inside of the car. Right now the plug is held in place with black silicone.

No, that's a purge solenoid/line.

Unless I'm misinterpreting CLpower's question.

I thought he was talking about the tube that's use as a safety measure. It's mounted on the bottle, and if the bottle builds too much pressure (and "blows"), the nitrous will spray out of the car instead of in the car.

I've never noticed that plug, and I didn't have a trunk liner in for a year or so. Maybe the 99's don't have it
