Yeah thats what I figured, didn't see it being a big deal at all. Saw on another forum where one was mounted just like yours and ppl were acting like it was the end of the world lol. I'll probably end up putting mine just like yours right behind the seat. Will be an easy quick reach and won't affect trunk space at all.

That's because most people are stupid and can't think on their own. Its how many Camaro guys mount their bottles too. They have that pretty much useless hole in the back so most put it there and make a cover for it so you get a nice flat rear hatch area and a hidden nitrous bottle. Its where we mounted my old roommates bottle too in his 94 Z28.

Didnt read all the responses. But I mounted mine in the trunk on the pass side. There are already holes in the trunk which go outside. I mounted the bottle so the blow down tube goes right through one of the holes. Sorry, lost all of the pictures.

Yeah a lot of guys have the bottles mounted there. I've read that there are some predrilled holes right behind the back passenger seat too that are perfect to run the lines out of.

Heres some pics similar to 03gts (not that it matters because Bakos already mounted his).

Well, unfortunately, my blowdown tube isn't going all the way through..cause i hit my muffler 8) But I highly doubt they will crawl underneath the car to look..

If so..I'll figure something out..

as far as the bottle mount ect, it came out very well, i'm in the middle of painting the bottle

(metallic black then future airbrush)

You got an idea of what your air brushing on the bottle?

I wanted to paint my tank for a while then I realized I would rather have a nitrous blanket to keep it warm and up to temp.

But a blanket helps it get up to temp faster and hold more heat in.

Well doesn't really get cool enough to where I'll have to be really worried about the temp dropping drastically..

I like my bottle to be around 1000PSI after it been warmed it takes a while for it to drop below 900 out here. Hell if I had to I could still use a blanket and be fine..the bottle will be clear coated :P
