Alright, heres what I plan to do. Lemme run it by u and see what you all think:
Zex wet kit. 100 shot or 125 shot with a little tuning. Guages just to be sure. (heres the part I need help with) I want to run a WOT switch AND a window switch from 3000-5500 (maybe a little wider range, but not much). I was planning on having just one arming switch which I would just flip on any time I want to use it, because my thinking was that the nitrous will never come on when I dont want it with both switches. That way I wont have to worry about any buttons or switches while Im actually racing.
does this sound like a pretty good, safe, and reliable plan? or should I have another switch that will actually start sending the N20 to the motor during the run?

One thing to remember is to shut off the bottle when not in use. If you dont this will burn up the silinoid. Maybe not the first few times but eventually it will. U deffinatly want a bottle heater i not sure witch is best the heat controlled or the pressure controlled one. As for a stock motor hes right on 100 to 125 shot mainly, and 150 is fun every once in a while. I only run an 80 shot dry and i get 1.2 seconds off the quarter with it. Just make sure u read up on it real good before u try it out so u dont blow a hole in ur intake or anything.

I'm fairly certain that the above posts are correct. Nitrous is fine as long as it's disconnected on public roadways. Run it at the track, disconnect it for the ride home. I think you need to literally disconnect the line, not just turn off the bottle. Otherwise, everyone would get remote bottle openers haha.
One thing I dislike about VA is that they'll confiscate your radar detector even if you're from out-of-state.
