Default Nitrous kit soon...few questions

I just picked up a NOS wet kit from a friend of mine. The kit came with all the lines and solenoids, bottle, bracket and bottle heater as well as Autometer AF and Nitrous pressure gauges. After much searching, I have come to the conclusion that I need a few more parts: rpm window switch, full throttle switch, one step colder plugs and a fuel line adapter. Does anyone have any suggestions for parts? I was told to get the SPX fuel line adapter, but not sure where to get it. I found a window switch/ full throttle switch all in one unit on the dynotune website, any opinions? Also, what plugs do you all suggest? I just want to make sure I have everything I need. Thanks in advance for the help.

-Eric

NGK Iridium is what I use, one step colder. Dont have the part number but you can find em on places like Intense Power. I love Dynotune, have a few products from themand highly recommend them! As or the fule adapter, check out AAM they make one also that I use. Its not hard to put on, just make sure you put a bit of oil on the o-rings. Other than that, shounds like your all set to spray! Have fun!

Thanks for the reply. I am going to order the AAM fuel adapter and I just ordered the NGK plugs. I also picked up the Dynotune digital nitrous pressure gauge and the Dynotune swithc panel "gauge" (looks like the shape of a guage but has all the switches). So no the only thing left is a TPS switch or Window Switch. Dynotune has a couple, not sure which to get. They have one that is just a TPS and they have another that is a TPS and Window Switch all in one...any advice there?

I use the same Dynotune guages, and have them mounted on an A pillar guage pod. If you dont have a form of EMS (I use the UTEC to work as a window switch), then get the setup that has the TPS/window together. Its better to sped a little extra to be safe.

Thanks for the help guys. I think I will order all the DynoTune parts today. Just unsure of how to mount the gauges in the nav comparment, might just get two gauge cups and put them side by side. Also, has anyone mounted the bottle in the spare tire well, I want it somewhat hidden? Last question, the fuel line adapter. I was looking at the AAM, but it is pretty pricey. I wouldnt mind looking into the SPX unit. Does anyone know the part number I need and the price? are these the only two options? Thanks again guys.

Ok, ordered the aam fuel adapter. and the dynotune gauge panel and digital nitrous pressure gauge. also ordered the colder ngk plugs. i also picked up a blown down tube. the kit came with a bottle heater, purge and everything else. So the only thing left is some sort of nitrous controller......window switch, tps....im unsure. Dynotune makes a two in one unit, anyone have any experience with it???

I mounted mine in the spare tire well and when you put the carpet on top you can only see a little lump.

Thanks for the help everyone. I ordered the two in one TPS/Window switch. I am just waiting for all my parts to come in so I can have it all installed then dynoed. I will get pics put up when I am done. Has anyone mounted the solenoids in the Fuse comparment in the engine bay. Seems like there is enough room and things will be very hindden with the cover on.

so you can use this to turn on and off at FULL THROTTLE or do you still need to mount a switch behind the gas pedal?
where would you tap in to for a signal? from CPU under passenger side or from the distributor? sorry dont want to noob it and be a statistic.

Just wanted to add, I recently learned that Crawford Z Car (makers of the plenums) sell a 2 guage nav compartment guage holder, you may want to look into that if you dont want them on the A-pillar.
