2.6.1 Nitrous Solenoid Mounting and Installation
1. Hold the 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 nitrous filter fitting (Blue fitting 4AN X 1/8 NPT) using liquid Teflon in the inlet port of the nitrous solenoid.
3. Install the blue 3AN X 1/8 NPT fitting using liquid Teflon in the outlet port of the nitrous solenoid.
i. Remove nitrous solenoid assembly from vise.
ii. Attach solenoid-mounting bracket to the bottom of nitrous solenoid.
iii. Verify desired mounting location for nitrous solenoid.
4. Install nitrous solenoid. If solenoid-mounting location is difficult to access, leave solenoid loose so the solenoid
inlet and outlet port can be easily accessed.
5. Leave wires loose for electrical system installation.
6. Attach nitrous feed line to the inlet side of the solenoid.
Pictured here are the Performer Solenoids mounted in the engine
compartment. When mounting your solenoids, be sure that the
solenoids are located in a place where you have ample line lengths
between the nozzle and the solenoids. Be sure that there is a little
slack in the lines between the nozzle and solenoids to prevent any
lines kinking. Be sure that the inlet and outlet ports of the nitrous and
fuel solenoid are easily accessible. If you are mounting your
solenoids in a location where accessibility might be a problem, install
the lines onto the solenoids before mounting the solenoids in their
mounting location.
2.6.2 Fuel Solenoid Mounting and Installation
1. Hold the fuel 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 1/8”NPT to Fuel Hose Filter Fitting into the fuel inlet fitting using liquid Teflon in the inlet port of the
fuel solenoid.
3. Install the red 3AN X 1/8 NPT flare fitting using liquid Teflon in the outlet port of the fuel solenoid.
4. Remove fuel solenoid assembly from vise.
5. Attach the universal solenoid mounting bracket to the bottom of the fuel solenoid using 2 of the solenoid
mounting screws.
6. Verify the desired mounting location of the fuel solenoid.
7. Install the fuel solenoid. If the solenoid mounting location is difficult to access, leave the solenoid loose so the
solenoid inlet and outlet port can be easily accessed.
8. Leave the wires loose for the electrical system installation.
2.7 Nozzle Installation
1. Determine the nozzle mounting location in the intake boot, just before the throttle body. Make sure the nozzle, mounting
collar, and the feed lines from solenoids to nozzle, do not interfere with any systems or components of the vehicle such
as the hood latching device.
2. Mark where the nozzle will be placed.
3. Remove the intake boot.
4. Drill a 7/16” hole in the intake boot where nozzle placement was determined.
5. Remove all the debris left by the drilling operation.
6. Before installing the nut and collar into the intake boot, check the depth of the nozzle into the collar. If the nozzle does
not protrude far enough, use the supplied 1/16”NPT Tap to tap the hole to the proper depth. Refer to the diagram below
to check for the proper nozzle depth.
7. Install nozzle mounting nut and collar onto inlet pipe.
