Window switch.. safe cut off range?
Window switch.. safe cut off range? hey.. i'm new to the board.. well i've been lurking a while my friend told me about this board.. great site!
i have a s2000.. just bought a Nitrous Express wet kit.. i plan on spraying 75 shot most of the time and 100 shot some times (hoping stock internals can take that.. not many have tried it on this engine)
this reason i'm asking on this board and not my own wild rice 4 banga board is theres alot more people on this site w/ experience and knowledge about nitrous
anyway the question.. i'm about to order a MSD window switch..
my rev limiter cuts in around 9,200 RPM what would be a safe RPM to have the window switch cut off the nitrous?
man some of ya'll have some insane cars.. i appreciate it if anyone can help me out w/ that question <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
'01 Silver S2000
Injen intake, v-afc, exhuast cutout, NX kit w/ goodies <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Window switch.. safe cut off range? A honda?!?!?! A honda?Q!?!?! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> JK Well...not sure if your rev limiter cuts fuel or spark. Doesnt really matter...dont want to bounce off it anyways i guess. Hmmm...with an RPM range that wide...hmm...only 2.0 liters displacemt...hmmm....you have $$$ to burn if you have an S2000. I would do a Jacobs nitrous Mastermind RPM based controller maybe. Start flow around 3800-4000 rpm and cut it off at 9000. That would give you a much broader TQ band and wont stress the motor like a single 100 shot would hitting it low in the rpm range. But i really dont have a clue on a car like that so take it with a grain of salt.
Not to be a peckerhead but there may be other sites more Honda oriented that could help better than here.

so rather asking people for answers and getting their best guess i'm asking on here
figure it would be about the same.. if you have a 6,500 redline and you cut your nitrous off at about 6,300 or somethin.. it would probably be safe if i leave a 200 RPM buffer in there on my car.. cut off at 9,000.. w/ redline at 9,200
i don't have alot of $ to blow.. i'm not rich.. saved up for a year to get my car..
i've been looking at a MSD window switch that will do about what you said cut in at 4,000 rpm and cut off as close to redline as it would be safe. except w/ it spraying a full 75 or 100 shot the whole time
the thing your talking about is a progressive controller right? how much do those cost?
