Mounted my nitrous, water/meth, tranny and veggie gauges

They're temperature controllers; each one can read one thermocouple, and you can set each one to flip two switches at two seperate temperatures for that thermocouple.

So, lets say I put a temperature probe in my air intake and hook three nitrous solenoids to it. I have one solenoid fire when the pedal hits the switch on the floor, I have one solenoid fire when the air inlet temperature gets to 150 degrees, and I have the last one fire when it gets to 180 degrees.

Or I do the same thing with water/meth nozzles. I have one stage from the start, a second nozzle opens when EGT's get to 1000 degrees, and a third opens when I get to 1100 degrees.


And then, when I'm not running drugs, I use a switch to read other thermocouples instead. Like the thermocouple in my veggie tank, the thermocouple in my injection pump inlet, or the thermocouple in my tranny.

Of the three, I currently have a thermocouple in my tranny line.

Downside to these controllers is that they're 120 volt, so I needed a power inverter.

So I mounted a 160 watt inverter where my fuse box is supposed to go.

(I just JB Welded tie-wraps in such a way to hold the inverter... Didn't have any other ideas...)

Just need some relays and solenoids now...

Geek! :P

That's really clever, once you get it tuned I think it will work well.

thats a cool setup and with you trans temp in the hot line what about how hot does it run...


but i like that setup you got very cool

I haven't been able to get the hot line temperatures above 200 degrees...

I installed the gauge in preperation for adding my A/C condensor to the ATF cooling system; I wanted to make sure I didn't increase temperatures by doing that. But now that I see that I have such low temperatures, I've found other priorities...
