Do you really need 2 bottles? You can always get a 15lb, or is it more for looks?

Section 1-A, located on page 24 of the 2006 NHRA Rulebook read as follows:

I didn't search too hard and didn't find the current rules.
I believe you also have to run the nitrous line outside the vehicle and have a blowdown tube if it is not separated from the cabin like the Z. I would search this, don't remember where i read this from.

ok thx i wanna do 2 bottles kinda for looks. have them slightly angled in looks nice and its more se-metrical and if anything i can always switch between the two to when bottle pressure jets low close one bottle and open the other and let the others pressure build up with out having to get out of the car.
if you do use some sort of Y connection, you wouldnt need 2 pressure gauges. you should only need one because most guages read the line pressure, not the bottle pressure. and if you have a Y connection, the lines would be sharing the same pressure
to be honest, if you are just going for looks, i would just run one line and not worry about the y connection. then when one bottle runs out, just switch the nit line to the other bottle. that would keep it simple and still look good

with the moods u have it should be a strong setup with a proper tune...just really think it over before you do a 2 bottle setup..you will have no room in the hatch if you can mount them
