Default First time with nitrous, could use some tips

I'm in the middle of rebuilding my engine (spun a rod bearing last fall) and I'm considering putting some nitrous to it. I got a whole new rotating assembly from texas speed and they told me it would easily handle a 200-300 shot. I'm thinking more more towards 150-200 shot to keep it safe. What kind of kit would be the best for the money and would I have to get more then is sold in a kit?

If just doing a 150 or so just a single noxxle wet kit would work fine. You'll need a bottle heater, and should consider fuel and nitrous gauges. Other things to consider are a window switch, fuel system, plugs, etc...

What type of car is this motor going in? Give me a little more info on it and I can help you pick out a system.

PM'ed. I always recommend using a window switch and a heater, a couple of other cool things to have are a purge and remote bottle opener so that you can open and close your bottle, and clear the pressure out of your lines, from the driver's seat.
