The proper and safe wiring of the nitrous system is also critical for consistent performance. Safety should always be the primary consideration when wiring. NitrousWorks strongly recommends the use of electrical relays, which prevent the amperage draw of the solenoids from damaging the activation switches. Relays also contribute to the proper functioning of the solenoids.
These diagrams illustrate a Single-Stage and Dual -Stage wiring arrangements. It should be noted that any wire used to deliver power to the solenoids should be a minimum of 16-14 gauge wire. The trigger wiring for the relay can be 22 - 18 gauge wire.
Single Stage System. This design has four main legs. The switched power supply in this system does not need to provide high amperage to the toggle switch. A switched auxiliary port on the fuse panel is an excellent choice. Run from the toggle switch, through the optional momentary switch to the #86 connection on the relay. From the relay (connection #85), wire through an optional Hobbs switch, or directly to the full-throttle switch and then to ground. The switch is to be wired using the ‘NO’ (normally open) terminal and the ‘COM’ (common) terminal as shown in the diagram.
To supply power to the solenoids, it is recommended to run from the positive terminal of the battery to the #30 connection. From relay connection #87, run to the solenoids and from the solenoids to a good ground.
Dual Stage System. As shown in the diagram, the dual stage wiring represents the single stage with each stage repeated.
