Default what drilling is required?

I might be looking to do some N20 for my next mod, but i dont know what would be the best way to mount it in my truck. I don't really wanna drill into the truck's body

So i was thinking that a bed mount would be best, but then how would i mount it in the bed, especially with a bedrug in there.


Just looking for some ideas/opinions. Would there be room to run lines through the firewall??

mine is in the bed. directly in front of the passenger side wheel well. if you have it in the cab around here, you have to have it vented to the atmosphere.

You can run the nitrous feed line along the fuel lines if you don't want to go through the firewall. I went through the main wiring harness grommet, just make sure not to cut or break any wires. If you want to mount it in the truck you can glue/silicone/liquid nails a board under the carpet and use bolts to mount the bracket. I ran the blowdown tube out the cab vent on the rear of the cab.

Well, i have a plan if i mount on the inside as for as the bottle.


Under the rear seat is a plastic tool box. remove that, and then i just gotta make a mounting plate that uses the same bolts.

Should work out good. Does the NNBS have the cab vents on the back of the cab? I haven't looked at one close enough.
