Default Nitrous Build. Need Help Making Sure I Got Everything!!

Hey guys i am getting ready to order my first nitrous kit for my stock 98 Z28 M6. The car runs great and im planning on running a 100 shot from a wet kit. Im planning on ordering a basic kit form Nitrous Outlet along with a window/Tps switch, ashtray switch board and a NHRA blow down tube. The plan is to order the basics so i can spray once or twice a month at the track. I am gonna get a new fuel pump on the car before the install. I plan on adding a purge kit and bottle heater a little later on when my wallet recovers. So basically am i thinking the right way on this and is there any items i missed.

PS: I forgot to put the nitrous filter in the part list for the basic stuff ill order before the install.

How are you going to heat your bottle up without a bottle heater?

THe bottle would need to be about 87 degrees to be at 950 psi. Anything less than that and you can have issues. You wat to run a non-projected tip plug, either aa NGK br6ef or br7ef.

Bottle pressure gauge, either on the bottle or in your car.

Ok i have been planning on getting a fuel pressure gauge and a N2O pressure gauge. How hard are these to install also would it be a good idea to throw 4.10's on there with the kit.

I would use the money for the 4.10s and get the purge kit, bottle heater and fuel pump. Might as well do it right.

I run a racetronix pump with a hotwire kit. Cost about $200. When buying gears, don't forget about the install cost unless you know how to do it yourself.

A nitrous pressure gauge will easily thread onto the bottle. I have one in my car instead so I can check my pressure while the bottle is being heated and to check it after using it.

You dont want to over heat your bottle so you really should get one.

We will not let you forget anything. When you ready, i can go threw every accessory and let you know the pros to having it and help you decide if you want to wait on it or get it.

We will be there for you with helping on the install. The most time consuming part of a nitrous install is wiring the system. It is the most important part. You want to make sure that you have good sole connections on the wiring. Soldering the connections are what we recommend.

If you have any questions feel free to call up and talk with me, I can help you out. Even if you are not ready to buy the system yet.

Thanks for all the input guys. I was already planning on buying from Nitrous Outlet cause i called them once and were very patient and knowledgeable. Now will the stock clutch hold the extra power of the 100 shot. And if not what will affordably.
