Nitrous: list of parts needed
I'm planning on installing nitrous next month and want to make sure I have everything I need. Here's my list:
NOS sniper kit
4 an purge kit
blow off adapter
blow down tube
fuel pressure safety switch
remote valve opener
bottle blanket
nitrous pressure gauge
That's the list I've got right now.
I'm also wondering about my fuel system. I'm using a mechanical fuel pump that gives a constant 7 psi. Will I be able to tap the fuel line on the outlet from the pump without any problems?

I see you live in ga.. I live in milledgeville ga. I am not sure of your plans for the car but there are a few things you could change for the better on your system. I am also an NX dealer. If I can help you in anyway call me at 478-457-7503.......
You will also need a beter fuel system too...

I forgot to list bottle pressure regulator which is a NX part. I dig that it will cool or warm the bottle if it see 5 psi change in either direction. That's awesome. What else would you add/change. From what I've seen the Sniper kit is the most complete kit for the price in the market. I'd be happy to be proven wrong. As for the fuel system Iwas also planning on going with a 5.5-6.5psi fuel pump with a freeflow rate of 120gph. If you think I need more tell me the setup you would recommend.

I also forgot to add line purge kit. I've also decided to add a stand alone fuel system for the nitrous to feed off of. I'm using an nhra approved 2 quart fuel cell with a carter 72 gph, 6 psi inline fuel pump and a small inline filter.

So could keep it from making me spin out at the line. And also it would stop dumping nitrous when shifting gears until I'm back in the next gear. Do you know the exact part name so I can look it up on Summit or Jegs?

That is basicly what you want.
It is another saftey device. You do not want to hit the nitrous at a low RPM, it creats a TON of cyl. pressure if you do. it also is good, in case you miss a shift, or something, just to turn the nitrous off at a given RPM.

I did a wiring schematic last night. I'm going to get a secondary fuse block. I'm going to get one form Painless Wiring that has 7 fused circuits and has an isolating circuit. Instead of wiring it to turn on when the ignition is on, I'm going to wire it with a switch between the ignition on source, and the fuse block. Then I'm going wire all the nitrous components to a switch panel where the ac/heater controls were. That way all the sources are properly fused to a block with its own power lead, and will be able to shut everything off, including the fuel pump, with just one switch. It looks pretty complicated but really isn't. This is what it looks like
