Best way to activate nitrous
Best way to activate nitrous I was wondering whats a better way to activate a N20 hit? Either a push button setup or a WOT switch? I figure the push button is nice because you can spray when you want but the WOT switch does all the work for you. Either setup will of course have a window switch. Any input?
maddboost, I am sure you have been around long enough to know that safety should be first...and with that, use a manual throw arming switch to energize the system, and a WOT to turn the solenoids on/off. Or if you prefer, go WOT then use your manual switch.
I have tried the WOT and lemme tell ya, not cool on your way to work and your passing that little old lady on a 3mi open stretch of road!
-or-
I also had a hasty 5 min nitrous install, literally zip tied the solenoids on, and used only a manual switch...last time I ran this "ghetto" setup, I had a 3-4 clutch pack go out and laid on the rev limiter until I could reach up and disarm the system. If I had let off the gas=big boom when shooting a 200shot.

I might need to be a bit clearer. I would have a seperate arming switch to activate the nitrous system with a window switch. But to do the actual jetting would a WOT switch or a push button setup be better? I figure the push button would give you better control.
i have done some imstalls, that are simple, and solve this problem.
run a spst switch, for selection.
side A, arm-------selector--------wot----relay--window
side B arm--------selector------buttton-----wot----relay-----window.
So side A is just WOT control, where side B is wot AND button, best of both worlds, if you like to push a button.
Ryan <-- i won't install a kit without a wot switch.

I actually had my quickest 60' when using only a arm/spray switch manually thrown at the line... But it did induce a lot of wheel spin at the same time. My safest, most consistent and better mph/et producing was from a WOT and launched on part throttle til the wheels planted, then WOT.
