Default First Nitrous Setup

Hi guys,

Have a few question regarding setting up a 100-150 max shot on a budget. My car right now:
- Stock internal 5.3 LM7, dual plane, MSD 6010, Holley 670 VAC SEC. (upgrading to 750 DP), Wideband AFR gauge
- Car: 1989 BMW 325i, 3000 lb with driver, Super T10 Speed, 3.73 gear, upgraded suspension

What I currently have is a NX Mainline plate kit. This is my proposed plan for nitrous and fuel routing:

Questions:

- Is the gauge in the location pictured safe and effective? I like the idea of the Nitrous Outlet valve and gauge (http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/gauges/...off-valve.html) because it allows pressure to be taken off solenoids without having to open trunk and vise versa.

- Is there an electric in tank fuel pump that will support this HP level that isnt high pressure requiring a return regulator?

I realize I am not mentioning alot of things such as wiring and plugs however I found those were well documented by searching. Thanks!

to help you size your fuel pump, would help to know how much you are making NA.

Yea, that is a good place for your gauge. I use an electric gauge with the sender at the bottle.

Thanks, I have never dynoed the engine. It is a 100% stock 5.3 with dual plane intake, 1 1/2" Headers, 2.5" full dual exhaust. So maybe 300 hp crank or so I would estimate.

It looks like you're on the right track. Just make sure your fuel pump is big enough to feed both the carb and your nitrous system.

Thanks, I think I will be ordering your digital gauge and valve soon.
