Default Re-wired my nitrous

I actually did this a few months back, but I figured I would share it.

I added a progressive nitrous controller, fuse block, and worked a electric cutout into my switch panel.


My pile of parts



Im pretty picky (or crazy) about some things so first I drew out a wiring diagram. It helped out a bunch though when I was actually doing the wiring.



This is while is was straitening out the old wiring mixed with my new parts.



I made this plate of aluminum to fit in the glove box to mount everything to since I didnt want to drill holes in the actuall glove box.



My switch panel wired up



Some of the wireing done and labeled



The wiring all done





I was really wanting to get the microedge+ but I they appearantly quit making them shortly before I ordered my parts, so the next cost efective progressive controller I could find was the NOS mini progressive controller, it also has a dual stage feature.

Thanks! It actually didnt come out as neat as I had hoped for, but fitting all those wires neatly into that small of an area is tough!

I got the fuse block from auto zone, and the terminal strip (which I used for my grounds) from radio shack, they had a jumper strip for it so I jumpered it all together and ran my main ground right in the middle of it. The labels I made for the wire are a heat shrink tube, I printed those off of a Kroy labeler which I have access to at work.

Its my N/A - N20 switch. My tuner wired that up to my ecu, I believe it uses a resistor to trick the computer into thinking the engine is running hot so it pulls timing when the switch is on. My tuner has it set to 8* of timing I believe. Its also wired in series with my arming switch so the nitrous will not activate with out it turned on.

Nice clean install.
Do you have relays to drive the noids or is that box enough?
