On a two stage system you need two nitrous activation switches right(the one you hit to make her go)? Or can you program in a time delay with let's say the NX maximizer?

 

with the new maximizer you can program a 2 stage system.

 

On the same switch?

 

on the same activation switch. It really doesn't even have to be a two stage shot. It is progressive then.

 

Actually,
The new maximizer will only controll one stage..
There is several different ways you can do it.
1.First you can run one stage and use the maximizer with the ramp to go up on the shot in incerments.

2.You can run the first stage on a micro switch and the second stage on a button.

3.You can run a Digiset which is a delay box.The way it works is you put both systems on one micro switch you wire the second stage through the time delay box.Set it for the delay time you are looking for.When you launch the first system will activate like normal and the second stage will come on at the time you have it set for.

those sounds like good ideas.

I guess i'll have to wait till i get the kit. Then find out a detailed way to do it. I just wanted to make sure you could do it.

 

On my dual stage, I have both stages (both on switches) wired to one micro-switch... With a dedicated fuel system I have it wired to where neither stage works without the fuel pump on, and stage 2 will only work while stage one is squirting... I have a switch for stage one, and a switch for stage 2.... The stage 2 switch doesn't even become hot until you turn on the stage one switch, (and both stages are wired so they won't spray unless the car is floored)... The stage one switch doesn't even become hot until you turn on the fuel pump... It works really well this way, because using a push-button is a pain in the ***, unless the button is on the shifter...

This works great when you're racing cause if you need that extra little squeeze, just flip the 2nd switch..... It's great...

 

I had my first stage, a 75 shot wired into an arming switch, then into a WOT switch. The second stage, a 100 I had wired into an arming switch, then into a momentary switch mounted on my shifter. That way I could control when the 2nd stage came in for varying traction conditions.

I am confused when you say you had it wired into an arming switch. I thought you needed a switch to atually set it off, not just arm it?? I guess switches just confuse me.....lol. What is a micro switch?

 

micro switch would be the throttle activation switch.... You never need two of those, you can run 2 stages off of one..

 

That's what I did because I'm a cheap bastard. 200 on the switch, 75 on a button. Pretty easy to wire up and it was handy having the 2nd stage just a button away...kinda like an "oh ****!" button. It was good enuff to propel a stock 5.0 Mustang to consistent 12.0x and a 7.7 1/8 mile (that ended w/ a huge fireball from a bunked spark plug ).

 

ah i see you use the WOT switch to activate first stage. Then the button to activate second. So everytime you go WOT you get nitrous, when it is armed? correct?

 

Right. I had a lighted toggle switch in the ashtray that I flipped to arm the system. I drilled out the stock shifter **** and put a small button in the end of it and ran the wires down under the center console for the 2nd stage. 2nd stage was tied into the arming switch too so I wouldn't accidently hit it during normal driving.
