Get the LNC-2000. It will only pull timing when the switch is armed and you are at WOT. Otherwise you'll have use of full timing for your n/a setup

Default Lnc-2000

Just to clarify, the LNC-2000 does not have a WOT switch built in (or an RPM switch either). Your nitrous controller needs to have one or you have to use a separate WOT switch.

Options for a WOT switch include:
  • an electronic module that connects to the TPS signal on mechanical or electronic throttle vehicles and provides a switched output. Here is an example of that kind of product (LPE CTAP-001).
  • a micro switch on the throttle for mechanical throttle cars. Lots of different microswitches exist.

The orange wire on the LNC-2000 (or LNC-2001 or LNC-2014 depending on vehicle application) is the timing retard activation wire. This can be connected to your nitrous arming switch but then it will be active when ever the arming switch is active. This may cause the vehicle to be a little lazy off the line until the nitrous hits (which can be good or bad depending on the car).

If you connect it after the WOT switch and the arming switch is in-line with the WOT switch then the retard will only be active when both are enabled/on (still doesn't mean the nitrous is actually on though depending on your setup).

Some nitrous controllers have an output wire that can be used to trigger the timing retard when the nitrous is actually on and spraying. This is often the best option if you have it available since then you are sure the timing retard is only active when the nitrous is.

Make sure if you are using a progressive system that you do not connect the retard activation wire to the nitrous solenoid output (that is being PWM controlled by the nitrous controller).

The LNC-2000 instructions have a couple of wiring diagrams showing how to connect the timing retard. A lot of other wiring configurations have also been posted to this forum that should be easy to find with a keyword search.

Yes. The LNC-2000 is what everyone uses on LS stuff.
