multi stage.. poor mans first gear lockout? on the shifter (under the boot) you have a switch that when not touched, activates a reverse relay correct? how do you mount up a switch to shut that system off and the switch light up when the system is on/armed?

No need to run a reverse relay at all, just put the "lock out" switch inline with the wot switch, but use the NC contact instead of NO. And if you wire it like a conventional nitrous system (switched 12v to master arm illuminated switch to lock out switch (NC) to wot switch (NO) to Relay coil.)
I have my 1st stage activated in 1st gear, and my second stage uses the first gear lock out. So 1st stg comes on at 3000 in 1st gear, and 2nd stg comes on at 4100 in second gear and both stay on to 6500 trough full pull. Is this what your looking for? as wiring is a little different compared to a single stage.

the window switch will be the same (3,000rpm to 6900 rpm) but i do not want the direct port to hit in 1st gear, just the rest of the other gears. setting up a WOT switch on the gas pedal, the clutch pedal, and on the shifter with a switch to turn or kill each system (only want to run a single stage on the street for now)
