Default trying to figure out a nitrous set up

hey im completely new to nitrous and i am trying to figure out what i need to start.

i have been looking at nitrous outlet because they seem to have the most well done product for an fbody. i was thinking the 78 mm plate kit with a bottle heater and a window switch. i was thinking about the gauges and im just not sure what is good pressure on a 10lb bottle or really anything. so any help would be nice

I believe ideal bottle pressure would be 900-1100psi. Nitrous outlet had a lot of good kits. Nitrous Expressas well IMO. I'm running nx single nozzle system with a heater and microedge.

900-950 is a good working bottle pressure. 1100 is too much IMO. Keeping it at said levels makes it easier to tune by keeping bottle pressure consistent. Also when you are down on nitrous and using a bottle heater, it is easier to get it back to 900-950 than 1100.

900-1050 seems to work well. I keep mine right around 1000

950-1000 is where you will want to spray the system.87silverbullet was right on(as usual ) with the consistency. If you spray it at 980 every time it makes dialing the tune up in a lot easier. Let me know if I can help you with anything!
