I don't know anything about nitrous, but if it's spraying in spurts, you have a restriction some place. Either the noid isn't working right (bad control signal or power or ground connection) or there is a blockage in the lines somewhere.
The electrical is easy to check. Meaure the voltage to the noid etc. Not sure what it should be, but maybe your instructions will tell you that. If it's connected to 12V, it should be very close to whatever your battery voltage reads.
Ground is easy too. Disconnect the noid side (leaving the gnd side connected) and check reistance to gnd on the wire you just disconnected. It should be very low, like a few milliohms max.
Ellis had a similar issue & it was some of his crimps were bad. Tho they were several years old. Did you solder the wires in addition to crimping them?

+1 on intermittent open in the wiring or trash in the line. Put a nitrous filter in the line to keep trash out of the lines and double check your wiring. Good luck.

Bypass the FPSS for starters. Did run bad azz before on street and dyno, so it isn't to much I am sure. good advice above posts also. process of elimination mostly. Can'y have Ellis as the only one spraying next week, as I still have yet not figured mine out?

What safety devices do you have?

I think I might have my work cut out for me. Sunday is sounding like a busy day.
