You just need to wire in a 12 volt relay that will get power when the trans brake is activated.When the relay has power you can wire it to open the nitrous circuit.

thats what i dont understand is how to make a relay open a circut when power is applied, rather than close it like they normally do. like i said, im pretty ignorant when it comes to wiring <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Daren,

I gave you the diagram over at CZ28.com....

for anyone else interested....

You may need to save it and zoom in on the relays if you need help with which spades are for which connections. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Default How to wire up nitrous with transbrake?

i know its probably simple, but im HORRIBLE with wiring. basically im trying to figure out how to make the nitrous deactivate when the transbrake is on, and then activate when the transbrake is released so i can spray off the line. thanks

Default Re: How to wire up nitrous with transbrake?

thanks for the diagram Kurt. looking at that, what it looks like to me is that the relay used there has 2 separate output connectors. one that is normally open and closes when power is applied to the switch, and one that is normally closed and opens when power is applied to the switch. is this correct? if so then i would totally understand it.

if thats how it works then the problem i had is that every relay i have ever used was just a 4 prong with only a "normally open" outlet. i wasnt aware that they could come with normally closed outlets.

let me know if what im thiking there is correct. thanks guys
