I would go with a wet kit. Check out Harris Speed Works. They have an awesome kit for 414 dollars. It comes with everything. It has the block for the fuel rail, micro switch, relay, activation switch and a gauge that comes standard with it. All you have to do besides that is get a set of NGK TR6 plugs and a window switch and your good to go for less than 600 dollars. Check out the digital window switch from MSD. Works with the coil over plug ignition and doesn't require chips.

Yeah sounds like a deal, im intrested. So the purpose of the window switch is to...... (my guess) shut off the nos when a missed gear occurs? When would the nos come into play? By me reaching a certain rpm's or just whenever i press a buttom?

To get the nitrous to activate you have to be WOT. With a window switch, you set when you want the nitrous to spray. So you have to be WOT and in the set RPMs for the nitrous to spray. So when you shift or aren't WOT it won't spray.

Here is a thread explaining the basics of nitrous. The info is the same whether your running Zex or NX.

You can run nitrous with that set up. Just need the kit, safety stuff and cooler plugs.

I just got a 04 gt engine with 25k miles. I hope it works because I didn't hear it run. The car was totaled and parted out. Anyways, I don;t even know and haven't seen how nitrous works. haha Just Fast &Furious haha

So for example i have an automatic and once in awhile at WOT it bumps the redline in 1st at 45mph trying to get into 2nd and i just let off. Would the window switch shut off the nos when this occurs?

yea the window switch is set to start the nitrous at 3000 rpm and shut it off at 6000 rpm you can get more chips for it but when i got it that is all that came with it
