Default New kit setup questions

I'm planning on spraying a little wet shot through my maggie to try and cool it down a bit at the track.
I've already got a basic kit but I had a few questions about how to set it up and what electronics to use.
The car already blows the tires off in first so I don't want to spray in first gear at all until I'm able to fit a bigger tire. I'd like something that has a first gear lockout if possible.
I've also never had a kit setup on a dbw car. Is there something I can use for a wot switch other than hooking a microswitch to the pedal. I thought ls2 cars had a different tps signal so I'm not sure what tps wot switches will work
I think something with a window switch, gear lockout, and tps switch is what at I need, just not sure what product does all three.

This sounds like exactly what you are looking for. It is a progressive controller, but its also got a built in RPM window switch, WOT/TPS switch, and a first gear lockout setting. It will also progress the nitrous if you need it to, to help with traction.

Let me know if you have any questions, or if you need pricing.

Thanks,
Garrett

Might be a little pricey for me right now.
Was looking at the fjo and nitrous outlet tps/window switches and It looks like they both have a gear lockout.
Are either of these still available or would I just need to search the classifieds

This controller looks like a very good option for you. Has it of plus side and the price is very reasonable for all that it does. There are mAny different window switches and controllers out there that all have there positives and negatives but this one would certainly fit your needs.

Big thumbs up to nitrous express for a sweet product and willingness to offer a suggestion.

I don't doubt it's a nice piece
All my other stuff is from nx, just don't have the money right now

I remember the nitrous outlet and fjo controllers being a decent amount cheaper, just don't know if they still make them

The mini doesn't have a true gear lockout but it does have a delay that you could use. We don't make the controller that you're thinking of anymore BUT we have a new bad-boy controller(actually a couple of them) coming to market soon!

Can it be delayed long enough to keep it from spraying in first?
