So... I'm standing in my garage right now, garage door open, in 40* weather, with my laptop in the engine bay as I type this. I need help.
I got home today and my nitrous kit was here so I immediately started the installation process...
I'm not even that far into it, but need help on where to put the main nitrous feed line. I'm out of ideas, I just can't seem to find any openings from the engine compartment to the cab. I really don't want to drill any holes but will if need be.
Has anyone installed a nitrous kit by themselves and know where I can run the nitrous feed line?
Thanks.

my bottle is mounted behind my passenger seat. i had to drill a hole in the floor pan to run the main feed line. i ran it inside of the frame rail and came up with it in the wheel well.

You don't have to drill/cut sh*t. In your ex cab there are 2 vents coming out of the back of the truck. One on passenger and driver side. I mounted my bottle under the rear seat on the drivers side and out the vent. Take seat out and you will see a vent that goes outside. Kinda tricky getting hose through it, but it will fit, just work with it. Then I just ran hose along drivers side frame rail and to the engine bay.

The seat and carpeting on the wall have already been gone for 3 days. LOL. Yea, I noticed those vents when I was driving down the highway with the radio off and windows up and realized that I could still hear the cars next to me.

Alright. I just ran the line through the driver's side vent and through the frame, but is it better to have the line come through the driver's side or passenger's side wheel well? Or does it not matter?

zip tie it up... the frame is ideal for it to run along... You still have a ways to go but DO NOT forget to take off the stem/shrader vavle out of the fuel test port....that is if you are using that as the source of your fuel, If it is a dry kit never mind about the fuel source. Make sure to triple check every step of the install, no mistakes with N20.
