Nitrous installation

[twofaced]

I have a quick simple question. When mounting the system, specifically the nozzle for a NX Express wet kit, I know you have to mount the nozzle after the MAF sensor. My question is, do you have to remove the throttle body in order to drill this hole? Reason I ask is, if so, I guess I will need to purchase new gaskets when I do it, and I am trying to get everything I need now so I can install saturday or sunday.

The problem with leaving it on is risking metal shavings being sucked down your intake. You can try and use a shop vac to get it out but I don't recommend the risk.

Thats what I was wondering, I have a 25 HP shop vac with small attachments, but I dont want to risk messing it up doing something stupid, thus the question. Maybe if I do take it off I can polish everything while its off, good saturday project, then I could install the kit on a sunday. Hmmm, anymore people have any input, take it off or leave it on?

take it off, do it right, and clean it while your at it!


metal shavings + nitrous + your pistons = :(

Anyone have any good pics of the location where I should drill on a 2000 throttlebody?
