there ar emany vendors on here that make quality kits like Harris Speedworks and Nitrous Outlet. you gonna need a lot more then just the basic kit to have a safe and effective kit.

-kit(i would go with a wet kit, you can search the difference and why)
-purge kit to clear air out of the lines before the spray
-bottle warmer to maintain the right bottle pressure
-depending on where the bottle is a remote bottle opener
-depending on the size of the shot, max would be like 100 shot on stock fuel pump, anything more you would need a new pump or boost a pump
-definetly a good dyno tune
-window switch or HSW microedge to control when it sprays etc

my recomendation would be the HSW single nozzle wet kit and the all out 3 package and you will be set all you need is a tune. dont know your mods or specifics on the car but if its a stick, stock clutch wont last long, auto will hold up for a little while. but even with a 100 shot without other mods, good luck keeping up with a zo6 because your gonna need more the a nitrous kit.

i would say an LS7 clutch kit would hold the power for a while but your gonna have to go with a spec stage 2 or more for longer holding power. the LS7 can be bought new for like 400 i believe. you can have all the power in the world but if you cant put it to the ground there is no point in having it. so buy some drag radials too.
