Originally posted by Ray: To revise the possible workings with a steeda, modify the setup to be a magnetic switch. mount the switch on the outer edge of the interior (bottom right, where the bottom of the shifter would be in first) and place a two wire powered coil (they are TINY) on the shifter itself. Whenever you go in to 1st, it will pull the mag.switch open and kill the setup.
That would fit in most any space.
The only problem with these setups is they can become frail with the amount of stuff ill be doing with the car, plus its not really reliable.

I'm going with a MSD digital window switch, so I can still spray in first, with the car hopefully halfway hooked by then... Actually, at 3400 RPMS and WOT, if I don't have some semblance of traction, it's time to start changing the suspension, lol. Also, 90% of purge kits come with a button, so I wouldn't worry about that. What I WOULD do is hide a "master" power switch somewhere... don't want valets finding the "happy button".

Purge kit didnt come with a button
And Valets.. HELL NO.
I cant remember who, but someone on here (Brapple) has a pre-98 center console with some switches in place of the stock pop-up cup holders.

It all depends on how much power you already make in 1st gear. If the car is a weak dog then I'd spray in 1st, but any 3L and above it wouldn't be worth the nitrous waste and tire wear. Spraying in second if it is a moderate shot and then with a progressive feature would be good and then let it rip in 3rd.

At the track i slip BAD, On the street i can probably run it in 1st but id like to stay away from needless wheel spin. Ill just do some trial and error to see what i like best, for now i just need to find a way to get some switches working.
