How many Relays for Nitrous set up?
Ok, here what I have. LT1 TNT 100-300 kit(came with relay), TNT purge, NX FPSS , NX TPS (came with relay), NX Fire & Ice heater, MDS digital window switch, MSD digital 6. I have 2 relays. Should I wire the arming system (Nitrous, FPSS, TPS, window, retard) with one relay, or how whould I wire multiple relays (example: 1 for Nitrous kit, 1 for TPS switch, 1 for Heater, 1 for Purge) ?

The relays usually handle 30-40 amps. You need relays to take the load off a switch that can't handle it (or if the TPS switch for example can't handle a load of a solenoid ground...it isn't just the positive). I'd have a relay for your nitrous/fuel solenoids being triggered by your fps/tps/rpm/wot switches, for purge (to trigger seperately), and another for your heater.

I'm using 3 relays in my system, but I'm using a "Maximizer" digital progressive controller. One is for the system/purge...one is for the NX TPS switch...And one is for the "Maximizer".
