Post NX line routing??

Hey has anyone routed the line that comes with the NX kit along the fuel lines? Is it long enough? Or is everyone doing it through the passenger compartment?

How long is your line/hose??
I have Zex came with 16ft of Braided hose. I put bottle in spare tire compartment, ran it out drain hole, then caddycorner over the gas tank/axle towards the fuel filter, then followed the fuel lines somewhat roughly and right to my NMU box which sits where the stock air box would have sat if I didnt have RamAir. It was JUST enough. I had about 2" to spare in line slack. The trick to it was to not run the line around the gas tank, but over the top, passanger side of the tank. I dont know if it will be the same for you since you will be mounting solinoids who knows where?? But in my case, it was just enough.

Well since my bottle is mounted on the rear deck area (passenger side). I ran my line into a drain plug under the passenger side back seat area, then route the line with zip ties alone under car. Then route it up threw the passenger side wheel well, and drill a small hole just under the PCM to fit the remaining lines were the solinoids might be. All i can say is keep it away from heat.

dude I'm telling ya, run it through the pass. compartment. Once you remove the PCM there is a HUGE grommet that you can pass it through. You will have plenty of line to do this. The only prob. with this is removing the interior kick panel and pass. seat which only takes bout 15 minutes. You dont have to jack the car up and use 30 wire ties if you run it inside........

Is that going to be fine eventhough I have my AMP wire running through that already???? The directions say don't run it near high voltage lines ??
