Question on nitrous feed line.

I've been doing some looking and researching about my future nitrous install. Newayz...I stumbled across this vid on My350z.com: http://www.powerperformancetv.com/video/8300
In the install they show the nitrous feed line being ran inside the car. Is that safe? I thought it was best to run the nitrous line under the car.

I would run it outside if possible but inside is okay.

That's where mine are - from the trunk, through the cabin, and through the firewall into the engine compartment, sitting under the carpet in the left cable tray.

So its mostly a matter of preference? Another question: I live in WI where they use salt during the winter. If the nitrous line is under the car will it rust or get damaged by the road salt? Would I be better to run the line inside the car?

IMHO, put it inside the car. If it leaks, your car will smell bad inside (sulphur dioxide). If it ruptures, you will never know it. Most people run it through the cabin.

It's fine to run it through the interior.

I did on my last car and plan to run it through the interior in my max.

What if you use protectant wheel well spray on the lines ran under the car? I live in Colorado and thats what some of my friends have done in their little rice hondas :P lol. That spray is also great for protecting your battery tray from rusting. I sprayed it on exposed (non-moving and non-exhaust) metal parts under the car.
