Like the title says How many of you guys are running your nitrous off a button?. Becasue this kit I have it is off of a button not a mico switch. Which one is better I have a A4 so take that into consideration and can I spary thought the shifts or should I have a mico switch???



Thanks Dan

 

Just say no to "Fast and the Furious" buttons!

 

Right, button bad micro switch good. Just remeber that.

 

I ran a button in my A4 LS1. It was good for 11.50's on street tires.

 

i agree the button kicks ***

 

Nothing wrong with a button if that's your preference. The WOT micro switch is a nice convenience for most. Unless you have a window switch that cuts off the gas before your shift point, I don't see how you'll not spray through the shifts.

I never had any problems spraying my old A4 for a lot of passes, through shifts, outta the hole, etc.

 

I am a newb when it comes to nitrous but i am thinking about getting a NX kit soon and i wanted too know on a WOT switch if i am in the gas with the nitrous not armed and then i decide that i want to use the N20 can i arm it while still in the throttle?

 

yes...

 

I am not talking about some gay *** button on the steering wheel

 

lol

a button is a button is a button, don't matter if it's on the steering wheel, on a shifter, corded hand held button, etc...

push button vs. WOT switch, kind of like Ford vs. Chevy

I'm a WOT switch guy. We all have opinions.

 

I run a button on my shifter. I really like the option to get on or off the juice and still stay at full throttle.
Actually I run 2 buttons on my shifter a 200 hp first stage and a 100 hp second stage.
The buttons are great for launching, if I start to loose traction, I feather the juice and stay at full throttle to regain traction. Then I bring stage 2 in for second and thrird gear. I find that traction is different every run, depending on how the track was prepped, temperature, and how many imports spewed oil.

 

Ohhhh, something like my little green button on my steering wheel that you press at the line, mash the gas, let go and HANG ON. That's exactly were I have my transbrake and now it's gay?

To each his own, I gues the button works great for some people, I wouldn't reccomend it for a novice who most likely will hit it at the wrong time.

 

you don't really need a window switch on an a4 i know alot of people who don't use them. Personally i would go with a wot switch. Then get some nice tires and heat them up. When the light turns green flash the converter and hang on.

 

I have both a microswitch which turns on the nitrous when I floor it and I have a button in the truck. When I turn the button on the nitrous is only activated when I punch the throttle. I have had no problems with mine. I dont have a window switch either.

 

Need a window switch? Not an absolute. It is a GREAT safety device though. Two major things it accomplishes - doesn't start the spray until there's enough rpm and shuts it off before you hit the rev limiter which would pull timing and fuel. If you were spraying before those events there's a good chance of a nitrous backfire. Always smart to have cheap insurance.

 

Ditto! Great cheap insurance with a window switch. Also, you could use a push button no problem. As long as u use it with a WOT switch. Nothin like accidentaly hittin the button while not at WOT. The result is not for the financially weak.

 

I run a shift handle with a button also, I have had many cars in the past( I'm 44) and I have run all my kits this way with nary a problem

 

yeah I run both the microswitch and a swich in the car so the only way it turns on is if I first flip the switch and then second if Im at wot So what I do is cruise down the highway going about 80 drop it in fourth mash the pedal flip the switch kick out sideways and take off

 

This the same way I have mine hooked up.
