WOT switch and my horn is my button. KeEps things simple and it's right on the steering wheel. You need a window switch for sure. Not having a window switch ESP in a 6 speed car is like playing with fire. 1 missed shift could = BOOM $$$$$$.

When my car was a 6-speed early on I was a nitrous junky. I had a window switch, WOT switch and a fuel pressure cut off switch. If I lost fuel pressure then no nitrous. If I was under 3000RPM or above 6200RPM then no nitrous. If I wasn't WOT then no nitrous. Lastely I had an arm disarm switch. Never had an issue. No need for a clutch switch.

In my experience those fuel pressure switches are more trouble then they are worth.

I've seen some bad kits out there that used some cheap fuel pressure switches. I had mine on for 2 seasons of racing and never had it cause an issue but there were definitely friends who had issues. I used to go through a 15 pound bottle every week during nice weather so I definitely used it a good bit.

I need the clutch switch because I have the lingerfelter timing box and gonna use the launch control device and a 5 pin relay so at the track I can just keep and floor at the line and the clutch switch will turn limiter on and relay will kill the nitrous, but when the clutch pops hold the f on
