How about you rig up a Auto meter shift light to tell you when yur nitrous
is on, I have one on my tach and its real bright. You cant miss it, one hell
of a dummy light.

| Nothing major, I forgot to turn off the N2O switch after my first run and
| when I hit full throttle in the burnout the microswitch turned on the
juice,
| then when the truck up-shifted into second and the slicks grabbed at the
| same time, it wasn't swallowing enough air and the combo of fuel and N2O
| built up in the air-hat............POP. I lost all of the intake before
the
| TB. Fortunately everything blew out and nothing went into the motor so I
was
| running naturally aspirated for the rest of the day. I still managed a
14.8
| even with the ailing trans and no juice and sucking in hot air from under
| the hood.
| The goof cost me an airhat and a piece of metal dryer hose. I don't have
an
| airbox anymore because this is the second time I did it. I'm starting to
| think I need a dummy light to let me know the switch is on, memory isn't
| what it used to be. If I still had my jacobs set up to turn on the juice
at
| 2500rpm like I used to this wouldn't have happened but I got greedy and
was
| launching with the juice.
