Default New to nitrous, helpful advice needed

I'm somewhat of a new member here I joined back in September but haven't got back on til recent. I just purchased a wet nitrous set up from another member on here and I'm curious as to how I should set up my spray and how much I should spray. I have a 98 c5 a4 with bolt ons including Texas speed headers, afe cold air intake, ls6 intake, yank ss4000 stall and 3.15 gears. I'm running 275/40/17 mt et street radials at the track.

I forgot to mention the kit came with a shark nozzle but I can pick up a 78mm nos nitrous plate local for 150, is that a better set up?

Set it up on the 78 plate. My advice for YOUR car, don't go over a 150 shot.
Add a window switch that has TPS and RPM triggers. The NOS Mini works really well.

Your drivetrain is going to be hatin you. On launch progress over about 1 to 1.5 seconds to save the drivetrain.

If you have q's, pm.

i talked to my tuner today here at my work and he likes the shark nozzle option better since its just a small shot of 100 or 125, saves me 150 bucks anyways haha. i'm trying to do research for a launch control module and i've been looking at the LNC-2000 and i think its what i'm going to need so i have something that will pull timing when the nitrous is armed, i believe it has a window switch built in also?

Sounds like you already figured out what you want.
Believe the LNC2000 does either a two step or rpm limiter.
Instructs avail online.

The LNC-2000 will pull timing and has a 2-step but you will still need a window switch.

Looks like a nice kit but like I said I'm on a tight budget I saw that nx is having a tax return sell goin on til the end of the month so I can get the proton plus kit shipped for under 400

Yes, I believe YOU would and I agree w/you. Get the best the first time or it will simply cost twice as much later.

Got started on my nitrous install yesterday and got hung up on routing the main feed line from the back part of the rocker trim panel upwards to where the seatbelt track is, I couldn't get the seatbelt trim panel removed completely and also wanted to remove the rear speaker quarter panel but couldn't get that removed either (didn't want to break anything) any help here guys?

I need somebody to make me a wiring diagram, I'm using a nitrous outlet wet kit with purge solenid with a nitrous outlet bottle heater, nitrous outlet switch panel with the arm, purge, heater switches (not using remote bottle opener), no fpss, and possibly going to use a msd 8969 window switch. Any help here would be greatly appreciated

Will the msd 8969 activate my solenoids to spray once it hits the set rpm window on its own or will I need a tps switch or manual button to press off the line?

Okay so I purchased the msd 8969 digital window switch and the zex tps switch, when I wire the power out from the arm switch do I run it directly into the relay first and off the relay into the tps and msd window switch? Or run a separate wire for each item?
