Default Show me your nitrous WOT switch mounting

Can anyone please show me a picture of how you mounted your nitrous switch?

I'm having a hard time figuring out where and how to mount my switch.

Mine is right behind the throttle linkage, it triggers the switch at about 3/4 throttle.

You might check the NX switch that works via the throttle position sensor. I may change from mechanical to that one down the road.

Or a fancy one that does more:

Been there. Tried that. The 5V output is not enough to trigger the relay on a consistent basis. At least not my relay.

Thanks Tony but these are a little more than I want to spend. I already have a microswitch that should work. I can't see spending another Franklin just to activate it.

The mechanical switch is always a stretch, our throttle shaft does not lend itself to the samll limit switches. I bought the NX switch and it still sits in the box. If you want it you can have it for 75% of the Summit price.

I ended up using a similar electronic switch from Denny at Racetested, it is a product from Wizards of Nitrous (WON).

The VEC can be used as a window switch, but, you still want the throttle position switch, otherwise you cannot rev at the line, plus, there are other reliability issues with the second switch.
