NItrous question help

What happens if you have a window switch all the safety stuff and a wot switch and while ur spraying you let off the gas what would happen?

Hmmm.... is this a trick question?

You have a WOT (wide open throttle) switch that makes sure you're at WOT for the nitrous to flow. If you let off the gas, you're not longer at WOT, so the nitrous doesn't flow. That's what that switch is for.

WOT switch is the way to go. it's a lot safer than a push activations button.....IMO

Wouldn't you want to use the throttle switch with the push button? I've got a clutch, so I'm adding another microswitch to the clutch to be engaged before N2O. That way, both WOT and the clutch will have to be activated... no spraying between shifts that way.

Could cause a lean out. Any N2O will expand under pressure which will not be good during a decel which would reduce the pulse width to the injectors leaning out the sys. N2O should only be used at WOT. Never anything less.
