Give the guys at Nitrous Express or Nitrous Outlet a call. Can't go wrong with either. Go with a plate kit rather than a nozzle. Also get a couple sets of BR7ef spark plugs.
How built is your built engine. You'll be wanting to blow past a 100 shot almost immediately. 150-175 can be run on a stock engine easy, so you may want to plan for the future and get a kit that can go up to a 250 shot.

I can set you up with everything you need.
What intake manifold are you running?

I would not do a progressive on a 100 shot.. 150 and over maybe but the 100 shot is not going to feel like a whole whole lot. Also, you have a forged motor let that thing eat!

Also might want to think about adding a second bottle/bracket if you plan on using it very often. A 10lb bottle is gone before you know it.

what are you using for fuel pump?

Which intake and throttle body combo are you running? Also, are you still on stock fuel rails or aftermarket?

Here's a link to the aluminum C5 Dedicated Fuel System. They are a bolt-on fueling solution for your nitrous system, and are very user friendly. The dedicated fuel systems include everything you need to get them going besides a 6AN fitting for your fuel solenoid inlet. The systems are 899.99+shipping.
