I was just wondering how many of you use safety equipment other than a push button and WOT switch. How many use a window switch or FPSS and how long have you ran it with or without?

WOT and arming switch is all I run. Might get some safety stuff in the future though. I did one race event with nothing more than a hot switch loosely wired out of the console, foot-brake/stall to around 2500 and at launch throw the switch, kind of scary on that night, I placed second but wont do it again.

Window, TPS, Wideband 02, Air/Fuel Switch, FPSS, large filter.
Might look into a back up nitrous solenoid in the future as well, just in case my nitrous solenoid sticks.
Gatta be save. Most of these accessories are so cheap, its a no brainer.

I just use a wot and window switch. The used kit I bought came with a FPSS, but it started leaking so I pulled it off. I've got a fuel pressure gauge in my pillar, so hopefully if things get that bad, I'll notice it before hand.

WOT, FPSS, Window Switch, Big *** Filter, I will be getting a wideband shortly, but it's just as much for tuning as watching my 02's on the jug. Also a delay timer, but it's so I don't spray outta the hole.

I have just a arming switch and a Throttle Position Switch. I also use a basic narrow band O2 gauge to keep an eye on things and it has more then paid for its self when I was having problems with my nitrous.
I plan on installing a FPSS with an idiot light.

no spray on my camaro...but on my mustang, the computer turns it on at 85%tps and the set rpms. i also have a fpss wired into a dummy light instead of the solenoids. ALWAYS use a nos filter. never know whats in the bottles that theyre pumping the nos out of to fill ur bottle. NEVER had a solenoid problem since ive run a filter. Though i dont run any...Safety solenoid(s) are not a bad thing....specially if you use a progressor.

JUST A WOT ON THE 68. when the pedals down so's the bottle. or at least it is when the arming switch is on. on the 96 it is just a pushbutton no wot at all. if i'm dumb enough to ever hit the button without being wot i deserve whatever happens.
