If I were you, I'd go to NX's homepage (or TNT, NOS, etc) and just download the instructions and packing list for one of their complete systems. You need a lot of small things and a few big ones.

Bottle w/ gauge
Bottle brackets
Bottle Heater
Main nitrous feed line
Fuel line
Fuel pressure safety switch
Arming switch
Window switch
Relays for your solenoids and bottle heater
Fuses
Wire for all your electrical connections

This is just off the top of my head...

Bubba,
I would look into a GENX2 package for all your accessories.
This kit will have a automatic bottle heater,purge,fuel pressure safety switch,nitrous pressure gauge,nhra valve and blow down tube. I would also suggest a windo switch for safety. Then you will need a set of NGK TR6 spark plugs. Depending on what MODS you have and ghow much you are looking to spray you may need to upgrade you fuel system. If I can help with any tech advice or pricing please pm me.
Thanks
Dave
