Arrow D17 Nitrous Questions & help

School is now out for the summer here, and I am planning some things for my car in the next month. I am going with Stage 1 cams, and adding a NX nitrous kit.
http://www.nitrousexpress.com/20421-...lb-bottle.html

Mainly just going to keep it on 35hp, occasionally doing 50 shot when racing. I am not going to take any chances and I am going to do this right!

I just have a couple questions to sort out before I buy the kit.
1. They say you need to spray a minimum 6" from the throttle body, and you must spray after the MAF sensor. On our d17 the sensor is basically located right at the throttle body, how would I make this work?

2. Where would be the best spot to tap into the fuel line for the fuel solenoid? A picture showing this would be great!

Our cars don't have a MAF sensor

Re: D17 Nitrous Questions & help

IAT, MAP and IAC are all in the same area. The cars don't use MAF.

Haha well I guess I'm dumb then. The sensor that plugs into my intake is the one I was thinking of. Would it hurt to spray before that?

Re: D17 Nitrous Questions & help

I'd avoid spraying at the IAT sensor, which is mounted in the air breather housing (or tube if CAI). The rest of the parts on the throttle body you can't avoid anyway.

How would you suggest I avoid the IAT sensor?

Wow.

Relocate it upstream from the new nozzles if it is gonna get hit by spray.
