I've been looking around and the cheapest I can find is $120..

But I also see on eBay that you can buy just the heater element for $40 or so. Do any of you guys run warmers with out the automatic extras..

Just a switch to turn it on and off?

 

I just ordered an element from DynoTune and plan to just have a simple switch on it. Just need to be carefull not to accidentally leave it on though or that could get bad.

 

You have the heater wired straight to a switch?

 

You can hook it up right to a switch but if you forget to leave it on it may overpressure the bottle and kill your battery. Best thing is to use a relay so when the car is not running the heater shuts off.

Have mine straight to a switch currently. My dumb *** left it on once for hours, the bottle was extremely hot to the touch and my gauge was pegged 1t 1600 PSI. But it apparently didn't get hot enough to blow my burst disc on the blow down. DynoTune's pressure switch would be an awesome addition. I bought one a while back, but haven't had time to install it yet.

 

Found a solution... Dynotune warming element and 95 degree thermostats..

 

I wouldn't bother with the thermostat. I've never had much luck with them as far as maintaning a good bottle pressure of like 1000psi. Just use a manual switch and pull your power from a switched ignition source.

 

Thanks, but I also said in there that I have a DynoTune pressure switch that I haven't had time to install yet. (I'd rather do pressure than temperature)

 

I have had both the NOS and NX heaters. I liked the NOS because it heated FAST, but you have to remove their t-stat to get any descent temps out of it. I cant tell you how many times I left it on and it killed my battery.

I switched to the NX one from NitroDaves, it heats a little slower but automatically shuts off at 1050 and this time I wired it so it would only work when the car was running

If I had to do it again, I would go with NX.

 

I think its best to use the pressure switch. Ours will keep the pressure within 50 psi! Adjustable as well. I have done the same thing, left it on once without a pressure switch and got up to 1600psi....Very scary
I think the battery was dying at that point.

how did you remote the t-state on the nos warms
