During the summer do I need to remove the tank from the trunk and bring it in? At what temps should I start to worry?

 

leave it out.. its how you keep good pressure in the bottle.. pretty common sense.. and the tank wont reach thech the 3000 or 5000 psi pressure limit.. i forget what it is.. but it wont be bad to keep it outside in the car

 

Unless you have a F-body with a hatch where the sun is gonna hit it all day, you will be fine.

Heres a chart with bottle temperatures and what the pressure will be. If the bottle is out of the sun in your trunk, you can assume the bottle temp will be around the outside temp. You're burst disc will rupture and release the contents at 3000psi so your bottle would have to get pretty hot. Optimal nitrous pressure is around 1050psi-ish.
