Amen.

You mentioned running a big shot and having to replace internals and you were right. You can run up to a 125 wet or dry shot before having to replace the bottom end and after about 150, heads would be a good idea. Just FYI.

Thats contorversial and varies from state to state. Some states say you can have it, but the bottle cant be open and some states just dont care. I wouldnt worry about that.

If the bottle is in plain veiw, then if you get pulled over its easy enough to just turn off the bottle and they cant prove you were using it. If the bottle is not in plain veiw then they dont know you have it anyhow.

All in all, I wouldnt worry about it.

Disclaimer: You shouldnt be using nitrous on the steets anyhow, only at the track.

I have never done any wiring with the exception of installing my CD player headunit (could be done blindfolded ), and I installed my whole kit, bottle heater, gauges, purge kit and remote bottle opener. Just follow the directions and wiring diagram and theres really nothin to it.
