What setups are you running, I'd assume you cant run a WOT switch only, it would be spraying off and on like crazy correct? :confused:

I'm thinkin about going with just a button on the shift knob, to give some bursts through each gear...

I really dont have a clue what setup would work for a manual trans, so you N20-Freaks speak up please!!! :D

I've never thought about running nitrous on a manual tranny, except as a top gear shot.

I suppose you could wire up a "clutch in - N2O off" switch so that whenever you depressed the clutch pedal the flow would stop and as soon as you let go it would come back.

I believe NX makes solenoids that are fairly tolerant of that sort of "pulsing" action.

Do some research though. It's been a few years since I ran juice and I'm sure technology has only gotten better.

Jon you would still need a window switch. The window switch would only be needed in the begining.

That way, when you launch, you'll launch N/A. You could have the Nitrous come on at about 3K RPM. I won't turn on the nitrous any sooner because I know you are still trying to figure out how to launch that thing. If you try to launch with nitrous all hell will break loose.


I would put the nitrous at any turn off RPM, because when you shift, you have to let off the gas (Hopefully you do this). Thus, the nitrous turnoff via the WOT switch. The Nitrous will turn back on when you get back on the throttle.

My Throttle blade has to be 100% open to activate the nitrous. And I mean 100% full!

If anything just ask, I have a bud with a 94SS that has a T56 and nitrous.

Until we get a pedal and hang it, Jon's car isn't launching anywhere.

Powershifting... ever heard of it? WOT won't work w/ powershifting UNLESS the gas is slightly depressed but do you wan to take that chance? The clutch "IN" pedal that Eric was talking about is prolly the best way. I heard that someone was tapping into the cruise control wire that disengages it when the clutch is depressed. I wonder if that feature is on the BBHP?

The BBHP pedal doesn't have the provisions for hanging the cruise cutout switch that the Z28 pedal has. I kinda wish that wasn't the case so I could plan a similar setup for NOS. I'll have to make a custom bracket on the clutch pedal.
