my new emblempros switch panel Really happy with how it turned out. It's a custom cubby hole switch panel with n2o arm, purge, heater and opener. If you want a quality piece, emblempros is the way to go.

Thanks guys. The pictures don't really do it justice. I wanted one to put in the cubby hole area, but didn't want the one that had the hole cut out for the cigarette lighter. I will be getting the rest of my nitrous parts ordered and get to working on setting everything up.

Looks very nice! When you're doing the install let me know if we can help out at all. I'm no expert by any means and I'm sure you'll have it under control but we just finished ours last week (been picking at it for several weeks as time permitted) and once it was complete everything seems to work fine. Just make sure if your system has a two-step and you don't plan to use it turn it up to about 10,000. Ask me how I know?

Thanks man, I really appreciate it, because I may have to hit you up for some advice. The wiring part has me a little worried. I've wired up my wideband, fuel pressure gauge and a shift light, but that's the extent of my wiring experience. I'm just going to take my time and not rush it. I'm also going to use the Leash single state nitrous board to help simplify things.

I've got an Air/Fuel wideband hooked up, so I'll use that to make sure I'm within safe limits. I'm going to start at a 100 shot, see how that goes, read the plugs and move up from there. Just want to be as safe as possible. I think as long as I've got everything hooked up correctly and my Air/Fuel looks good, then I'll be ok.

Any help you could give would be appreciated as I don't know anything about widebands.
Thanks.

I have the AEM Wideband. It's a really nice unit and works really good. Install was very easy. I pulled power from the driver's side fuse panel located right as you open the door via the radio fuse (used an "add-a-fuse"). I am running an open loop speed density tune, so I was able to screw the bung into the driver's side o2 on the header. I'm not going to be running an open loop speed density tune after adding the nitrous, so I'll just weld the bung into a location close to the driver's side o2.

Then I could do everything myself.

Did you mount your gauge on the pillar inside the car or in a pod where you could see it or just use it to tune and keep it out of sight then? Trying to decide what to do with the gauge.

I hadn't either but I was looking at Summit's web site to see if they sold the gauge any cheaper than AEM and it came up on the side. I may just go that route since my tuner can't get me in and then I can just do the work in my garage one weekend since I don't weld.

If you are looking for a cheaper option, Glowshift makes a wideband unit. I have no complaints with my Glowshift fuel pressure gauge and have read good things about their wideband.

I bought a Glowshift 3 gauge pillar pod that I mounted on the driver's side A-pillar. I have my AEM wideband installed and placed in the middle pillar pod and my Glowshift digital fuel pressure gauge in the pillar pod right above it. In the pillar pod right below the AEM wideband will be a Glowshift digital nitrous gauge.

My WS6 has no traction control, so no issue there. As far as the lighter goes, not sure yet. The only thing I've ever used it for is plugging my battery charger into it, so I'll probably relocate it.

Thanks. I saw that AEM sells their wideband gauge for like $217 but Summit lists the same one for $175. I get a racer's discount there so it will be $165 with no shipping or handling. I guess that is a pretty good deal because with the no-weld clamp I'll be right at $200 and then will be able to adjust jets as necessary if the air changes or if I change how much I'm spraying.

I appreciate the help. Trying to learn these things so that I don't have to rely on others to get the car set-up correctly.
