Default Good soldering iron or tool?

I'm going to be installing my DRY nitrious kit soon and will be soldering as much of the wiring as possible. Can anyone recommend a good soldering iron for me? Thanks.

I haven't soldered a nitrous kit but Weller is the standard irons. You may actually want to get a Weller propane iron if you need to get into tight places (has no wires). Whatever you do, don't buy anything under $40, you will just have more headaches then anything else. Most stations are the $100 - $200 but that is a little bit over kill if you plan to use it just a few times. Also look for Ungar, they are a good iron company.
