Default Disabling nitrous while two step is activated

Hello all. Can anyone tell me how to disable my nitrous system while I have my two step activated and only come on when my two step is deactivated?

Do you use a progressive controller or WOT/rpm activated window switch?

Ok, if using a rpm window or progressive controller you could've set the rpm's for system to activate just a few rpm above where your two step activated...

A guru on wiring here may be able to give you a better idea, but I'd imagine there's a way to interrupt the arm signal from your switch that arms the system, maybe by grounding it out with a signal wire from your two-step when it activates? Then once the two-step turns off and you start moving the signal from the arm switch to the system circuit is completed? Not sure, slightly above my wiring know-how but I'd imagine there's a way.

I would think you could use a 5 pin relay with a normally open and normally closed contact so when the relay is off your Nitrous system is active and when it’s on your 2 step is active. Might be better options than this out there but I would think that would work.

If using a micro switch and no controller you'd wire it up similar to this.

That will definitely work, but check out Leash Electronics. They have a nice nitrous relay board to not use nitrous with trans brake on. This will also work with the 2 step. It is a cleaner install plus it has a relay for purge built in.

What about just using a thumb activated button?

You would take the micro switch out and add the push button in it's place.

I have a M6 and have the same issue. So let me understand. Instead of the transbrake button there is where i have the button i use to activate the 2-step?? Or is it better install a switch on the clutch pedal or one off those window switch ( lets say my 2step is 4K i then put the windowat 4.5K). A diagram will also hemp me. Thanx in advanc3e
