Default note to you nitrous newbies installers

well i have installed several kits , but yesterday i moved my solenoids and decided to put the male and female quick disconnects on all the connections and wow was it simple. and as usual i had something not ran right and all i had to do is unplug it move it and plug it back up . and it is easier to test every connection too .

all in all i'm sure allot of you guys already do this but i just did for the first time and will never go back

i skipped using those on some connections because of the cost from autozone. the ones without the outside plastic cover were 2.99 for 14. i just wrap the outside with electrical tape.

I bought a couple of kits since we do lots of N20 installs...Caspers...Jegs...Nitrous Outlet...weather pack connectors are sweet. They have several current capacity choices as well.

I order all my connectors wholesale...from mouser electronics. But then again, I use them all day at work. (I fix video games for a local arcade for a part time job)

That would be great to have a vendor offer all the various WPs. Also, maybe offer a crimping tool which is allmost mandatory. this would make it much easier on the end user, to have one place carry all the goodies.

We are planning on offering everything from goood wuality wire loom, weather pac connectors,fuse holders etc. We have a lonmg list of things we have instock that are not even on our website. The problem is Courtnay works on the books and the website full time and there is just not enough hours in the day. Lots of people also do not know we have a full wall of earls fittings. There is so much not on our website that we offer and stock. We are hoping to hit the grind real hard and heavy after we come back from memmorial day weekend.

So bare with me.
