Nitrous Feed Line Mounting
1.
Determine the route your main nitrous feed line will follow. Ensure the path does not route the nitrous feed line
too close to the exhaust system, suspension, electrical lines/components or tires.
2.
Attach nitrous supply line to bottle.
3.
Feed nitrous line along proposed route.
4.
Secure nitrous supply line to underside of vehicle.
Note:
Stainless steel covering of the main nitrous feed line is very abrasive. Shield painted components or
sensitive system components like electrical, fuel lines, brake lines or suspension components to prevent them
from contacting main feed line. Rubber hose can be slid over and retained as a chafe guard.
5.
Leave nitrous line loose pending installation of nitrous solenoid.
2.5
Solenoid Assembly
Use the following procedures to install the Performer and Performer RPM nitrous solenoids.
Note:
Remember to use Teflon paste only on pipe threads.
Do not use Teflon tape.
Hint
:
Placement of the solenoid is often limited by the lack of possible mounting locations in the engine
compartment. However, if possible, observe the following suggestions:
Solenoid Safety Information
1.
Keep solenoid and lines away from exhaust components.
2.
Trial fit the solenoids with all lines attached to ensure a proper fit.
3.
Solenoids may be mounted sideways or upside-down, if necessary.
2.5.1
Performer RPM Solenoid Assembly
1.
Hold the Performer RPM Nitrous Solenoid securely (such as in a bench vise) being careful not to harm
the solenoid or block the inlet or outlet of the solenoid.
2.
Install the nitrous filter fitting (Blue filtered fitting 4AN x ¼NPT) using liquid Teflon paste in the inlet
port of the Performer RPM Nitrous Solenoid. Be careful not
to over tighten the fitting causing it to strip or gaul.
3.
Install the 4AN x 1/8NPT (Blue straight fitting) using liquid
Teflon paste in the outlet port of the Performer RPM
Nitrous Solenoid being careful not to over tighten the
fitting.
4.
Remove the solenoid from the bench vise or whatever is
holding the solenoid. The assembled solenoid should look
like the solenoid pictured to the right.
5.
Hold the Performer RPM Fuel Solenoid securely (such as in
a bench vise) being careful not to harm the solenoid or
block the inlet or outlet ports of the solenoid.
6.
Install the fuel fitting (Red fitting 4AN x ¼NPT) using liquid
Teflon paste in the inlet port of the Performer RPM fuel
fitting being careful not to over tighten the fitting.
7.
Install the 4AN x 1/8NPT (Red straight fitting) using liquid
Teflon paste in the outlet port of the Performer RPM Fuel
Solenoid being careful not to over tighten.
8.
Remove the solenoid from the bench vise or whatever is holding it.
