You should be cool if you dont get too wild. Keep it to a 100 or at most 125 shot, and do it safe. Window switch fuel shut off etc. and you should be fine.

Cooler plugs(tr6's at .035 or .040)) and wires(msd, taylor etc). The window switch is a good safety mod but i never ran one on automatics only on manuals.

I would recommend an exhaust for sure and get a custom tune that can make up for the extra flow from the nitrous to get the best results from the hp that you will be making. I would highly recommend a transgo hd-2 shift kit corvette servo and a billet overdrive servo for the tranny and that will help it live alot happier and dont run as much of a chance of blowing. You definately need a window switch so you arent spraying through your shifts I have been doing that on my truck but my transmission is fully built with every available aftermarket part. Upgrade your plug wires to msd's or something compareable you need the best spark you can get. Then you need new spark plugs like ngk tr6's gapped at .035 no bigger or the spark will get blown out by the nitrous. Go with a 100 to 125 shot and makes sure it is a wet shot system otherwise you run a much bigger chance of blowing your engine. I would recommend a ny-trex kit thats what I have and has alot of cool features that none of the other kits have.

What features does it have that say an NX Express kit wouldn't have? I'm curious because I'm getting an NX Express kit. Thanks

Look in my sig pic you see that all three silenoids are on a anodized aluminum block looks cool the nozzle has a better spray pattern then any other kit on the market it comes with a fp safety switch which most dont comes with a hard line for the purge you can see how I routed it up to the windshield so its alot easier to run and the kit comes with a purge silenoid unlike most kits. I can post some more pics if you want.

can you post one of the magic button?

how hard was it to install could a guy w/ little to no experience put this together

and from your sig i can see that you spray just before the intake manifold if i ever wanted to get rid of the "GO JUICE" would be like a hole in my intake?
any pics could you post them.

one more thing how big is the bottle?
casue i would like to put it under my seat if that is possible?
btw this info is for my truck in my sig..

On the 4wd its just the factory button for the autotrac system. The arm switch and purge I am in the process of make a switch plate for them to go in the center console behind the little door that you can put cd's in so as of right now it is just rigged and I dont have a pic of it cause it looks like ****. You can install it this was my first notrous install and I have one of the more difficult kits to install due to it being a wet kit and I had to install a nitrous pressure and fuel pressure sending units too for my gauges along with the a/f gauge. Here are the pics that I do have if you want more let me know what of and Ill post them tomorrow morning.
Same as sig pic but a little bigger

This is one of the main reasons why I like this kit cause all the silenoids are on one block and it looks cool too

Drivers side of view of the system

Better shot of the nozzle yes you will have a hole if you take the nozzle out but you can patch it up with some sealant and a couple of pieces of plastic

I mounted the tank in my toolbox

This is where you tap into the fuel rail on the passenger side of the engine
