what should i use to make my nitrous set-up as safe as possible
i am using the tnt dual nozzle kit i am ready to wire everything up. i wante dto know what should i get to mkae it safe as possible to run. should i get a timming tunner and a window switch. or liek i noticed teh ramcharger one has both. basically im asking to run a 100-150 shot whats teh safest way to go any help would be apreciated

I like having a window switch so I know it will not turn on at too low of RPM. It is less likely to happen on an auto but not impossible. The best safety feature I have on mine in my opinion is the wide band. If it goes lean I'll shutdown.

what all does it take/cost to get a wide band?
i have a FPSS, WOT, ram chargers tuner, didn't know if wide band is something i would need

See if TNT says to pull timing on your car. NX said to pull 2 degrees for every 50 HP shot on my car. The timing tuner will do this without affecting timing when not spraying. It also has the window switch that you should run. And yes on the fuel pressure safety switch. Don't forget a WOT switch. These will make it safer but are not fool proof and will not save your motor if the nitrous solenoid fails to close or the fuel solenoid fails to open.
If you want to be safe, code 4 has the right idea with a wideband. But I am thinking if it goes lean for any reason you better be looking right at it and then I'm not sure you can react fast enough.
I am looking into a wideband from Dyno Jet that can be set up to to shut the nitrous down if it goes lean. It is around $500.00, but what would a motor cost you?
Remember not to spray with the traction control on.

A FPSS is always a good thing to have

I would go with a wide band also - Innovate is definetely on the top of their game.
Here is a stand alone LC-1 Innovate Wideband with a Dynotune Round guage for $299 complete!

or with a square gauge for $279!

Innovate here, and love it for tuning and logging.
On the fpss, a thread a couple days ago we were talking about adding one to the output side of the fuel solenoid. That way if fuel noid opens and press is sensed then the n2o noid will open (ground for n2o noid). Best for safety, with additional benifit of minimizing lean spike or maybe eliminating it all together. Second fpss must be set at a lower psi than the one before fuel noid. One is for fuel sys press and one is to make sure fuel noid opens.

PS, Dean you get your other links working (diff site)?

Dean: Can these items be set up to shut the system down if the AFR gets too lean?

good stuff guys keep it comming but basically for sure a fpss, wot(which i have), and a timming tuner(i owuld get ramcharges sence it has built in window switch also). and then i would think about doing wideband also not a bad idea...." but what would a motor cost you?
"-terry s lol not cheep $3,500 for my new shortblock but that was just normal driving valve spring broke bent valve and hit piston so yeah. im just trying to do things that should be done i dont want to half a** it if im going to do it im going to do it right and thanks again for the coments ill be looking foward to more of them

These cannot do that but we have a WOT nitrous shutdown switch in the works which will shut the nitrous off at a dialed in Air/Fuel ratio. It will work with narrow band and wideband! Stay tuned!
