I really hate wiring


Wiring, and electrical is definetly NOT my strong point. With all the extra junk in my car now, I'm wiring in a separate fuse block for the extras. I'm leaving the stock, glass fuses for all the stock stuff, which is really just lights, radio, blinkers, and that's about it...lol. My new fuse block has the digital 6, fan, tach, fuel pump, and all that junk.

With my harness on, I can't reach the key to kill the car, so I'm going to have to put a kill switch somewhere I can reach it. I also have to wire the nitrous purge thru a relay, but the part that's really twisting my brain, is that I have to wire a series of relays, and switches to work together with the nitrous and T/brake. Since the nitrous is on a WOT switch, and I'm using a Tbrake, I need the nitrous to not spray, while I'm on the brake at the line, and when I release the button, it has to release the transbrake, start spraying the kit, and retard the timing.

I really hate wiring. It's a good thing I have some help, or I'd probably burn the car down...lol

You will be using both the normally open and normally closed contacts on the relays. My buddy spent 700 bucks on his electrical panel and everything is labeled with a blueprint. Land the wire under the terminal, and go. All relay's and shit are wired and ready. The guy is on YellowBullet that he got it from. I imagine in the electrical section. He never answers his phone, but I'll see if I can find out where he got it from if you don't find it first. He's a cheap ass bastard, but after he priced everything out to do it himself, he said it was well worth the money to buy it from this guy. Great customer support and he's a one man show I believe, so the quality is top notch. The relays are all beefy too, not cheap bosche ones that we all use, lol.

No, not him. WHOLE CAR electrical panel. The only thing he left in his stock fuse panel is his headlights and tail lights I believe. Everything else - transbrake, roll control, nitrous, MSD 7 Series, fuel, etc. - Everything!

Hmmmm. Don't know that one. Nitrous Dave sells a set of prewired relays that you basically plug the Tbrake in one side, and and the nitrous in the other, and hook up your button, and it takes care of it. The only other thing you do, is wire the MSD timing retard wire to the nitrous solenoid, so that when that solenoid is energized, it retards the timing. I don't want a switch panel mounted in my car. That's race car shit.
