Default Nitrous check list...do I have everything?

I just started gathering parts for my nitrous install.

I ordered a MSD digital window switch and a 255lph fuel pump.

Friday when I get paid I am ordering the Harris speed works wet kit. It seems pretty complete.

After that I am taking it to a local guy that supposedly does amazing work tuning GM's. I have a mail order tune (from previous owner) and I am afraid the timing is to high for a 100 shot.

So before I spray it will be dyno tuned which should help everything.

I will be getting some colder plugs to. What is the NGK number everyone recommends?

Is there anything I am missing I should look into before I start spraying? I am hoping to have everything tuned and ready by thanksgiving. I have a bunch of mustangs to stomp that weekend.

NGK TR6's...or you can use Autolite 103's. Are you planning on running a fuel pressure safety switch? Might want to look into a blowdown tube kit if you're going to be going to the track regularly.

Fuel pressure safety switch wouldn't be a bad idea. Where do they actually mount? If there anyway to mount them after the fuel noid? Do if it goes bad it will not shoot the nitrous?

It's not absolutely necessary, but a purge kit would be nice. Most likely it wouln't be included in the kit you get.
