Arrow Question for you nitrous users

What are you guys hooking your RPM window switches up to?
I was thinking I would need to buy the Tach-Ready module for the distributorless systems....you know the same thing you need to hook an aftermarket tach to.

Yep, you need a tach adapter to give you a tach signal. We have them in stock, if you order through the site, I can get one out today.

Yep, any coil on plug Ford needs an adapter to get a normal tach signal.

Hey Sal, while your on the boards today, would it be safe to run a 50-75 shot on my truck? I am running a street program with 17*-18* timing I believe and 17#s of boost on pump gas. I can run this program with no problems in the cool weather. I figured I might be able to use it with nitrous if I run 100 Octane. My side 2 is a agressive street and needs a pump/race mix in the winter. I am scared of it though for nitrous use.

Whatcha think?

Oh, I have TR6's gapped at .038, but I have a set of BR7's I got from you a while back in the box ready for some nitrous use if you think the TR6's can't handle the heat.

I am assuming you have a built motor . If so, then you can spray it. I'd stick with your street program because of the timing. Use the 100 octane, and use the suggested jets for the size you want just to be safe, they are generally a tad on the rich side for safety. Definitely use the BR7s, and gap them to .032-.034.

Yes, it is a built motor....cams, longtubes, the whole 9 yards. HEHE

I will do just that. I will probably stick the 35 shot pills in on pump gas to check and see if the system works. A short 2 or 3 second burst shouldn't hurt I think with the TR6's. They are fresh plugs anyways.


I appreciate your help
