Default NX 150 wet shot

I am planning to hook up a NX wet kit here soon. Before I do, I was wondering if I need to get any other stuff before I hit the spray. You think my 4.8L can handle this? or should I step down to a 100/125? I will be using a WOT microswitch.
1) Window Switch - Do I really need one?

2) Fuel Pressure Saftey Switch - Need that too?

Also, on my 1st run.. if I spray through the shifts, will my tranny ever see the light of day again? If not, what would be a safe shot to spray through the shifts.

Any suggestions or tips?

thanks!

Yeah, you might want to get one of the tuners. Its basically a progressive controller that allows you to run a decent size shot without the initial hit if you don't want it. I would recco a 100 shot for the 4.8 if you don't the the tuner. I would also recco the window switch incase you hit the limiter while spraying (all n20, no fuel!!), The safety switch would be a nice addition also. If your worried about the trans, as you should be. Get a Transgo shiftkit and billet servo's installed to help the trans from slipping with the additional power.

I think that would be fine, if thats possible. I would definatley recco a shift kit and billet servo's though, no matter how much n20.

If you want a progressive controller, then get one like the NOS progressive controller. The Ramcharger does have a timer delay, but it doesn't gradually increase the shot like the NOS controller does, from what I've read at least.
The Ramcharger timing tuner has a built in window switch, so you don't have to buy another one.
Richard(Oxidizr) has the NOS progressive controller, maybe he'll chime in about it
