Okay how often does the nitrous relay go out and is there a reason? My car was cutting out on nitrous only and then I tried everything from plug gap to using the purge solenoid as the main one to see if the other was damaged. Then tonight I bypassed the relay and it ran good on nitrous. This is the nx efi stage 1 custom kit and the relay I am talking about is black wire to 12v white wire to ground(no fuel safety) green wire to solenoids and red wire to wot switch. with it hooked up it would cut out but if I just run the wot switch to the solenoid it runs fine.

I know there is poweradder forum but this part gets more traffic, mods can move if need be.

Its been grounded in the same place and this just started. Is there any problem just running the wot switch to the solenoids with out the relay?

I don't know about your specific solenoids but all I do is run a wot switch and a arming switch.

Ok thanks! I dont think I really need it as the main reason to use it with the kit is for a fuel pressure safety switch which I dont have anyways.

bypassing safety's never wise. But I don't have one either. Mind you I don't know how you would install one on a carb's system.
