Default Question For Nitrous Users

Curious guys what's the one thing you'd like to see in your nitrous kits that does not come standard, within reason how can Nitrous Kits in general be improved upon from installability to options and extras, try and be specific. Look forward to your feedback. - Thanks!

Include a window switch. That should be a standard for nitrous kits, especially for people that are buying their first kit. It just makes it even safer for the more unexperienced users. It is also just a great thing to have for just about anyone. A new one from Baker can be had for like 55$, probably even less if they are bought in bulk. Dont remember if thread sealant comes with kits, but that would be a nice, cheap extra.

if it is a wet kit where you need to tap into the bellow, a slp style smooth bellow that will hold the nozzle and nut securely.

some kits do, but my NX wet kit didn't: a pressure guage, blow down tube, and FPSS. I know TNT and NOS come with these.

A "Twisted Sanity Nitrous Controller" would be nice.

Bottle heater and window switch. you know, just pretty much what you would need to get a car running without having to buy extra's.

maybe don't include anything else but leave it open for "suggestions" what else to buy for a safe kit and tell the customer what each does and the added saftey....huge for first time buyers.

make a few differant price ranges for the kits and give the consumer the option on what they want included in that kit.. ex. window switch, fpss, bottle heater etc etc.
for example..
$400.00 for a bare bone kit
$450.00 for the kit and your option of 1 -window switch or fpss
$500.00 for the kit and your option of 2- window switch..fpss.. or bottle heater

and so on and so forth.

(i know the prices wouldnt be that generous..just makin examples)

All kits come with a WOT switch anyway. Window swithc would be nice I would think a bottle heater would be second since I have a truck the bellow thing does matter. My kit came with a fpss but if yours doesnt then add one in.
