YOU WANT TO BREAK THE CIRCUIT IF FP DROPS… WHICH EFECTIVELY LEANS THE SHOT…

Right. That’s why you only want it to close under sufficient pressure.

is it just me or did Newman just make this Nitrous install complex as hell? FYI I have never installed a kit

idk what line he has it on - so you could be correct. I thought your question was based on the nitrous install properties, not the wiring schem. my bad.

So long as the circuit is open when fuel pressure drops, it does not matter.

Altough, if the switch power fails you would be safer with it NO.

Not complex, just documented.

Well then we’re in agreement. (I’ve had enough beers with you to know that lean=bad.) Plus control systems are kind of how I pay my mortgage. 😛 There’s some stuff in there I wouldn’t do, like break the load side of something with a switch, but on stuff this small it’s probably fine to avoid having to pull wires back and forth through the firewall.

Here, join the fun.

Well he’s got safety switches on the throttle and fuel pressure, and low bottle pressure and heater armed indicators. That stuff doesn’t happen magically, most people just rely on a black box to do it for them.

FP switch is probably drawn wrong. I guess the drawing is correct if the car was RUNNING.

IT is N/O, closed at 35+PSI

If fuel pressure drops the N2O and fuel solenoids close.
