Its really that easy? Dont happen to have a spare bottle and solenoids do you?

If you aren't worried about leaving parts in Florida its that easy.

No I don't have any nitrous parts.

65 wet shot is what I'm running. Took my 14.6 car and made it go 13.53. I don't have any spare parts, but it's a safe shot. You can piece together a kit for hella cheap. If you want to, find a set of colder plugs, and you can run a 50 dry shot if you want to go cheaper. You will want a spark cut rev limiter so you don't hit your stock limiter, go lean, and boom, game over.

Am I on the right track?
Craigslist NOS dry kit (bottle, lines, solenoid, and, WOT switch)
Napa electric fuel pump
Walbro 255 intank
Bosch cold start injectors in intake pipe
MsQ to run everything

The mopar action guys ran a 150 shot in a similar manner for a few passes anybody want to guess how long I can get away with it for?

Same tired car I saw at Carlisle? If you want it to stay running, max at 85 if it's a wet shot. You could probably get a single pass out of a 100 shot.

ok im running the zex kit and am running the 75 shot been for 3 summers now. I have simple bolt on and thats it . I personally am a fan of the wet shot. what it does is it makes a perfect mixture of fuel and nitrous then shots it in throu a single fogger ( one nozzle) in the intake tube then into the engine. I find that the wet kit is the safest. I run reg plugs but min 93 oct at the pump. DONT hit it under 2800RPM i have a window switch that i just installed this year for the 6k RPM to kill the nitrous before fuel cut. I have the stock fuel pump but am up grading this year, because it does take a demand on the fuel system. Nitrous is just as safe as a turbo but just as dangerous. Too much boost and not enough fuel in a turbo boom. Too much nitrous not enough fuel boom. BUT the thing with nitrous is it is VERY picky as soon as it goes to lean there is not to much of a warning before the "shit hits the fan" other things to consider is running a purge, i do cause it not only cleans the line but fills the line so that when activated there is not a momentary bog do to to much fuel w/o nitrous. Keeping the bottle warm is a good thing to to keep up pressure. running a nitrous pressure gauge in the cockpit to keep an eye on things. these are just options, you dont need but help. Anyways if there are any more questions feel free to ask me.

Don't advance your timing too much, and use high octane fuel. For the street, fill up with 93.

This is a race car.

Yeah the nitrous will go on for the challenge make the couple drag passes and probably be sold while still down there. Yes Jerry its the same tired car and its aching for a DOHC/3.94 swap

Try to get a wet kit and not a fuel injector for it, you want the nitrous and fuel to mix in the nozzle itself.

honestly go with a sniper wet shot by nos, i got the kit cheap (not hooked up) but got a good deal on it at a local parts store, someone ordered it never picked it up and it was sitting there for a year.... 200 brand new whole kit.... but i tend to find good deals once and a while.... lol
