Default ZEX Questions?

I found this kit on the net for what seems to be a pretty good price. Just have some questions about it.

Zex smart box with 75/100/125 jets
10 lb purple zex bottle
bottle heater
purge-valve
TCS window switch

tells about the kit
http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/zex/

Tell me what else I need if any to go with it. I know nothing about n2o, but I am just about ready to get my feet wet. I have a full bolt-on 99' car with M6. What will I need: Injectors? WOT switch? Window switch? Blowdown tube? Remote opener? I have stock injectors with a racetronix plus kit. Remember my 99' has the small injectors. ALSO: What does the TCS window switch do? What will keep this kit from spraying through my shifts? I do not leave WOT until I finish my run, I speed shift the whole way through. I do not want to be spraying between shifts. Sorry for all the questions, just want to know what else I need besides what is listed here. Thanks.

Since Zex does not offer a dry kit for the LS1 I assume you are looking at a wet system. If this is true you will not need to worry about injector size.
If you run the Zex system make sure you use there windowswitch as well. It will make the install alot easier.
Yes if you set the rpm window to shut off before shift points it will shut the nitrous off before shifts.

I would add Spark plugs, heater and purge. I personally am not a fan of the Zex heater.

WE offer Zex products as well so let me know if I can help.

Here is a good read to understand what each item does.

Why do we not like the ZEX heater?

Zex is a very simple set up with that "controller" box. I suggest doing this as your first experience with nitrous.

the zex heater sucks! i have one and it doesn't do a good job at all. my buddy has a compucar heater and it rocks! my zex takes for ever to heat up and reheat after a run. his heats quick and hot and reheats fast.
