Well honestly you would only need the kit. Most of the other stuff is optional. But here's what I'd recommend:
1. ZEX Nitrous Kit - Easy to install, 55-75 shot on stock internals.
2. Nitrous Pressure Gauge - Obvious use.
3. ZEX Purge Kit - A must for consistent runs.
4. A/F Gauge - Monitors the Air to Fuel ratio, determines a lean condition.
5. Spark plugs - 1 step colder for 55 shot, 2 steps colder for 65-75 shot (do NOT get the BOSCH +4 plugs), I recommend NGK V-Powers.

And if you have some more money....
6. MSD 6AL Ignition
7. MSD Blaster 2 or Blaster SS Coil
8. MSD Pro Cap Distributor cap.

As far as internals go, look into some forged rods and perhaps some forged pistons as well. JE is a good one for pistons and Crower for rods.

Sorry about the delay....
