Well, you didn't mention a bottle heater. If you dont have one you'll need one. Your BG kit's jets are tuned to spray N20 at 1000psi and your bottle will never likely get there without a heater. A gauge for your bottle is also a nice addition so you can monitor pressure. A pressure switch that cuts off heater at 1000 or so psi is also nice.
A full 10lb bottle at 70* will only have about 600psi. It takes heat to raise the pressure. Without the proper bottle presssure your tune will be off and you'll be spraying rich (with a wet kit). With a dry kit you just wont be spraying as much HP as you think with low pressure.
Cold Fusion makes a nice heater and pressure switch. Contact CF member/supporting vendor Robert56 and he can probably hook you up.

ahhh good call and iwht the heater ure going to want a blanket. because my heater doesnt work worth a damn in the cold weather w/o a blanket. ive never had the psi in my tank get too high except right after they fill or if its summer and u leave it in direct sun light.
i also think a psi gauge is imperative. dont have to mount it in frount of u... it can be oin the bottle just look at it b4 u heat it up and ull be gold.

From: Lahaina Hi
Hope you have some good tires on the back of that thing.
A 125 shot will break you into the 11's weather you try for it or not ,100 shot easy 12.0 to 12.20's.
Good luck and don't miss a gear.
If you like spending money they have a new RPM activated controller the size of a spark plug box that you program with your computer lap top .
I think you just want to have fun so change the plugs to a B8EFS NGK and have at it.
Check it out only about $200.00 bucks

Hay Dave fried the main bearings 300 shot ,got to tear it down again.
Can you believe it they put me on the board for the next 3 years
I guess they liked my KABOOM!!!

Well I´m going to use the Fjo mini 2stage contoller. I have MSD6AL and going to have a timing retard from msd.
But how am I going to use "First gear lock out" ? What is it that feel witch gear I´m using?
Bottlewarmer is on the list now, also auto turn off. Already have the gague. Will have them in the front of the windshield. Fuel and N2O.
I´m going for the M/T ET Street 26x11.5x17 On sawblades rims.
I made a 12.43 119mph with street tires, 2.02 60foot. Very bad grip. How much may the slicks do?
