Really dumb N2O question
I have always wandered how do guys with manual transmissions run N2O? How do you keep from blowing up during shifting or missing a shift. Is there something like a switch that goes on the throttle cable or the padal. Just doesn't seem like an activation switch on the dash or shifter would be safe unless you are really fast at shifting and pushing buttons. :D

Re: Really dumb N2O question (JRODDVETTE)
I run a W.O.T. switch on the carb but more importantly a rpm window switch (MSD). I can pick the rpm the nitorus comes on at and what rpm it shuts off. You should have the nitrous shut off a few hundred rpms before the rev limiter for the motor. You do not want the motor to bump the rev limiter when you are on the nitrous, the cylinder will load up and it can cause a big problem.
