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.

What spark plugs should i use. This is all new to me. I have always been a NA type guy. So a bottle warmer is manditory? Also does where u live matter cause i live in San Diego and it always warm here.
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.

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.

Thanks for all the input everyone. Now keep in mind this will be my first nitrous kit so how hard are they to install right? Also where do the N2O and Fuel Preasure gauges plug into. Also this will be a 100 shot so what spark plugs and fuel pump do i need?

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.
