1. Yes you definately need some sort of gauge, keep the pressure around ~1050

2. upgraded pump and injectors? Probably considering your already probably over 400 rwhp with your modifications, a wet kit will enable you to only need a fuel pump.

3. I would not even spray once with the mail order tune, take it somewhere and have it professionally tuned. Never can be to safe when it comes to nitrous.

4. Get a window switch, bottle heater, FPSS, and a WOT switch to be absolutely sure your safe. Spraying through your shifts will only hurt your transmission, a window switch will help this.

If you look around you can find some good deals. You can get everything for ~650 if you get EVERYTHING that you need. Much cheaper if you get a baseline kit. Just be sure to get a wot switch and a widnow switch. Many people don't but I think its necessary to be safe. I'm still in the process of buying my stuff. Just do what I'm doing, taking it one step at a time!

its not as big of a deal with the auto but it will help for not nitrousing through your shifts.

If you are looking to go Dry on a budget but still want quality look at our single nozzle dry kit,Window switch,heater,nitrous presure gauge.You will need to upgrade inectors and fuel pump.

What injectors are you running? and what hp at the rear wheels? still on stock pump? With a dry and an auto, considering starting with a small hit, you can get away without a bottle heater, and window sw if your tranny can handle it. mail order tunes often add timing, so be carefull.

stock injectors and pump. have not dynoed the car after cam swap so i am not sure. did some more looking and thinking about the zex wet kit. seems to be what i am after. easy install and would be good for a small shot every now and then.

Zex is for sure an easy install, but if your thinking about the future at all, go for NX or TNT in the wet department. They often have killer deals.
