Default is this a start? new to nitrous

1. Harris Speed Works Sudden Impact single nozzle wet kit 75-100-125-150-200HP, with intake manifold solenoid brackets.
Quantity

2. Fuel Pressure safety switch with 4an fitting
3. NGK TR-6 plugs
4. bottle blow down kit
5. HSW Revolution bottle heater kit
6. 4an to 1/8NPT fitting from FPSS to fuel solenoid.

ill get a nitrous filter a little later. deciding to mount in tire well or rear seat tunnel so I can open by hand.

planning on a 100 shot, 125 max. my 28.8 injectors are pretty much maxed out. is a fuel pump NECESSARY??

I hear RPM window switches are handy as well as bottle heaters.

as it comes i'm out of funds. since I'm automatic i was gonna rely on the WOT switch. I brake stall to 2500-2800 rpms, shift NA about 6400-6500, and have a shift extension of about 5300 rpms after a shift. bought the heater kit.

You will be fine as long as

1.Your car does not bog out of the hole.

2. Your drive shaft or rear does not brake causing you to over rev the engine nad tag rev limiter.

I hope this does not come across wrong but a motor cost alot more than a window switch. It would be worth seeing if you can find atleast find a used one in the parts for sale sections.

No problem. I have just seen to many things happen that a simple window switch could have prevented. Not trying to be pushy.lol

also a pump and injectors would be a very good idea as well, seeing as how you are heads/cam already. i wouldnt imagine the stock system and 28.8s will support a 100 shot. Fuel system is one thing i personally would never skimp on, just my opinion though. Good luck with the hit, let us know how it all goes. also you are correct about HSW products, they are awesome!

Good list. On the fuel pump it wouldn't be a bad idea. What you could do is install everything and hit the dyno with a fuel pressure gauge along with the wideband on the dyno. If you lean out any on the A/F or drop more then a few pounds of fuel pressure you'll know if you need more pump. Highly suggest the RPM window switch too.

Thanks,
Matt
