dual bottle setup

[UDLOSE98]

for the cobra, not the camaro.

already have one, but i think it needs a friend, plus with the ligthing I am doing in the trunk, it will go the best.


The way I figure it I can still use jjust one sending signal for everything (bottle openers, blankets) And (Y) the lines together in the trunk and bring just the one existing line into the engine bay. Is there something i'm missing, the pressure will even out even though there is two sources, right?

any better way to run it?

Re: dual bottle setup

I'm not sure when it comes to running juice, but it sounds good to me, and yes, the pressure will even out. As for using one sending signal, I don't know, but I don't see why or how it might hurt/not work.

Re: dual bottle setup

yea it all seems to make sense, I was overcomplicating it at first, but one switch will operate the two openers and one switch for both blankets, each blanket gets a seperate pressure reading off the bottle. so the only thing I can think of is needing two N20 pressure gauges.

Re: dual bottle setup

Does the gauge go on the bottle itself? Would it be possible to connect the lines with a Y fitting and run the pressure gauge on the other side of that fitting where it's only one line? The pressure equalizes. Think of 2 balloons, on is blown up all the way, the other isn't blown up at all. If you connected them together somehow, the pressure would equalize to where the full one deflates some and the empty one inflates some, putting both at 1/2.

Re: dual bottle setup

yea, but one blanket could heat less effectively than the other. Or maybe one of the bottle openers failed. Thats why i'd like two.

Makes sense. Good luck! Let us know how it turns out.

Re: dual bottle setup

Yea i have a friend with the exact same setup...basically just making it a 20lb (2 10lb bottles) bottle. Has two bottle openers and heaters set up on one switch each as well. Only thing i would say is make sure you use thick enough guage wire and good swtiches.

Re: dual bottle setup

yup, just use a Y to connect the two feed lines into one and you are good to go.

I am doing the same thing with my car actually, taking the back seats out this winter and making a rear seat delete with the two bottles. :)

Re: dual bottle setup

cool, are you gonna run 2 pressure gauges?

ATM I am doing just one gauge after the Y. Spending the money on other items for my car. :)

Re: dual bottle setup

Yea I suppose just running on would be alright... and cheaper, i'll consider.

Re: dual bottle setup

so if you have two 10 pound bottles allready...will that be better then buying a 15 pound bottle and running it alone...or just connect the two 10 pound bottles you all ready have?

20lb>15lb ;) not to hard to figure out

Re: dual bottle setup

ha, im just doing it cause of the way i am doing my lighting in the trunk, and two bottles will make it look more complete than one, also doube the nitrous capacity.
