its a lq9 but im changing the rods and pistons no matter what because the compression is too high for the turbo and the im pretty sure those pistons will be getting pretty hot with nitrous as well

As far as the n20, I would set it up on a Hobbs switch to say 6 psi to turn the n2o off and the turbo will take over from there. There really shouldn't be a need for it after the turbo is spooled, if there is then the turbo is too small.
Hope that helps.

i have a few questions about plumbing for the vacuum lines. I bought one of the vacuum manifolds that ill probably mount somewhere on the firewall, I have two ports on the wastegate (one on top and one on side) one port on the procharger big red bov, boost gauge, and boost reference on the FPR. How and where do i plump these lines. Ive read a few posting where they say reference the Wg off the Turbo housing but Im looking for other options also where does this hose go off the bov?? boostcontroller etc????
