Default Wiring the Timing Tuner Question?

Should I wire it after the WOT switch so it retards the timing only at WOT? Or should I wire it before the WOT switch so it retards the timing when I activate the system? Will it act fast enough?

Generally, you would wire the Timing Tuner so that the switched ground is the ground for the WOT switch. I think it only takes something like .008 seconds to retard the timing, so it's done before the first shot of nitrous is even hitting the cylinders.

OK, so I will run it after the WOT switch. Between the WOT switch and the system relay on the yellow wire, right? Then the other wire from the Timing Tuner will go to the FPSS then to the black wire on the system relay. I think I got it Thanks.............

Is the Crank Position Sensor located next to the Oil Press Sending Unit or is it behind the starter?
