BAC - agreed, I am going on the assumption that there is already sufficient fuel to support the nitrous spray. Nitrous is only dangerous when there is not enough fuel to consume the resulting oxygen, and the oxygen instead ignites. When used properly though, as I understand the process, it actually reduces combustion temps considerably. I'd suggest a WOT microswitch as a fail-safe along with a "go, baby, go!" button, and perhaps some logic to only allow spraying above a safe RPM threshold. Spraying at 1000 RPM with partial throttle would be all kinds of no good, even with proper fuel.
Wet shots ensure the right amount of fuel is sprayed with the nitrous -- of course if sprayed before the manifold at a single point instead of direct port injection, there's a chance of puddling in the intake manifold. Are our manifolds shaped right for a single wet shot at the throttle body, or do we have to go with direct port injection on the BC/BFs?
