Joe, Having much experience with the nitrous and that wet plate I can really help you out. The absolute best accesory you can have on your kit is a bottle heater. Next is a window switch. The car is SO much more fun to drive when the computer is turning it on and off. The best window switch you can buy would be either an MSD or an Autometer. I have the MSD because I wanted all my electronics to be the same brand so they all work together well. You will also need a DIS Tach Driver (Tach Adapter) to make it all work. If you need help installing them I know exactly how to do it so PM me.

After having gone through about 4 or 5 WOT microswitches I am now tired of adjusting them. There is the possibilty of hanging the throttle wide open while spraying with them too. i bought the NX electronic TPS switch and I dont ever have to worry about it anymore.

Also you will find that it is better to start spraying about 3400rpm when the engine really gets flowing and to have it cut off at around 5700rpm so it is out of the motor and youll probably shift about there anyways.

You do not at all need a purge kit. i havent had one on my plate for awhile now. The plate just hits so good that you will never feel a lag in power. If you do feel a lag then you are either spraying too early or your engine is not running right.

The biggest improvement I ever made with the nitrous was when I switched from a MAC CAI to a K&N FIPK. I wish I had never bought that MAC CAI the car's A/F ratio was screwed up so if you have one then get a K&N.

Also go ahead and buy that $50 fuel switch from NX. Its just cheap insurance.
