How to run the wires??

I need to run some wires from the engine bay into the cab for my nitrous kit. Is there a existing hole in the firewall or do i have to run it under the car??

Exactly...just be sure to put the wires THROUGH the grommet located behind the computer. For some strange reason people seem to just push it out of the way and run the wires through the hole next to it. I've seen it done with wires and nitrous lines...not a good idea and they'll eventually get damaged.

There's plenty of room in that grommet if you get creative when stretching it too.

I have a 1/0 Power cable for my stereo system running through it, in addition to some other wiring for my fuel pressure gauge and nitrous system and ignition box.

If you have to, use a wire coathanger to stretch it so you can run whatever wire through there.
