I keep mine in my bed, with tonneau.. So far on the latest 92 degree day my half full bottle reached a pressure of 1300PSI.. I tested it for this very reason.. I am tryign to decide if I need a blowdown tube. The tech sation guys dident say anything about it last time, but I am sure that I could benefit from it!
Go with the tube, and still get a bottle heater, so that you can actually control the PSI actively.

Mine got as hot as 1400psi in the bed of my truck, under the tonneau, parked in the sun on an asphalt lot. I never saw it get any higher than that and I checked it about every other day throughout the summer. I ran mine on a wot switch with a push button for the same reason, I didn't want to spray through shifts.
I have a NOS brand bottle pressure gauge if you're interested. It's brand new, still in the package.

sorry guys but no pics yet. The nitrous kit may be for sale as I'm toying with the idea of doing a Turbo setup on my truck. I can basically get a all the hot parts for about $500 and oil/interncooler wastegate/turbo for around $1000 so I figure I can do a full turbo setup on my truck for around $2000.
