What else is needed??

Well i never have planned on putting the bottle on my car, but I got a very good deal on a NX kit, and had to jump on it.... So now i'm wondering what else am I going to need??

Kit is unused, and has a purge..

I know i need a bottle warmer, nitrous pressure guage... what else though??

Colder Plugs?? any sugestions? gonna be under 150 shot..
Differnt intake elbow?? what does everyone else use?
Tune?? Spraying this on a 96 z28 with stock computer tune.. It's an Auto..


Anything else??

All the help is greatly apprietiated.. Thanks much!

I use tr6 plugs, I've been using them since I put the kit on and started at a 50 shot....all the way up to 150. Great for the nitrous and doesn't affect n/a as far as I can tell. I also like having an electric fuel pressure gauge that I can see when I'm spraying(you don't want to go lean). I noticed it stayed right where it was supposed to up to 100 shot....then when I sprayed 150 the fuel pressure dipped a little bit(just acouple pounds), but I decided to get a new fuel pump anyways(255lph). I also have air/fuel ratio gauges to keep an eye on things.
I also have a stock tune, which will be changing shortly via madwolfe because of the gear change(also its been running pig rich since the headers), but you don't need to tune for a wet kit because it supplies the extra fuel. Also, I've heard that nx jets their kits to run on the rich side anyways. I've also got the a4 like you. I have not sprayed through the shifts. I just let off the button right before them. A lot of people do, but if it decides not to shift and your still spraying and you hit the rev limiter, you'll be in trouble.

What about the intake elbow?? Did you just tap into the stock one or what?

I bought mine at ramchargers(performance auto parts store), but I don't know if places like autozone or murrays have them....I think I paid like a $1.75 each. Not bad at all. I think I gapped them a little smaller than stock gap, like maybe .005 smaller.....
