I use a pistol grip with 2 press buttons, one on the trigger and one where thr hammer would go.

i press the first stage as soon as i hit the gas. I footbrake it to 2700rpm and as soon as i go i press the button, another half second goes by before i activate the 2nd stage. If she bites i press the 2nd stage, if she slips i get out of it.

I find this gives me more control for traction, and more options on hp selection when racing someone at the track, i dont always have to be on kill. And when they ask what shot... technically im not lying when i say im on a 100 shot, but they dont have to know i have an additional 100 shot lol

Come out to North Star today. I will be running NA expect 6.4x at 104. Friend’s LS3 with 300 shot will be looking for 5.5x today. He can talk plugs and fuel system.

As far as controlling NOS goes, we use the nitrous leash. I’ve only got 3 passes on NOS from my 1st time out with the car but I got enough data to tell that the nitrous leash is well worth the money. The steve Johnson plate is jetted with a fat 250 shot . The controller is set to bring the NOS in at 20% off the trans brake/ activation switch then brings the rest in at 1.5 seconds. I can build multiple stages and control how fast the NOS comes in. Car went 5.52 with minimal tuning off the trailer. That’s my mustang with a SBC & NOS. I run the boost leash in my corvette and it works on the same principle.
