hi there.
i have a b18c4 which i am currently transplanting loom and all into my Classic car shell.
skunk 2 inlet, dc sports & S/S ex sys, CC clutch & flywheel,
adj cam wheels etc etc, all the usuall bolt on mods.
i have booked my local Hondata Dealer & Honda Tuner for the s300 & R/R tune.
i also have a full nitrous kit which my tuner tells me the s300 can operate,
MY QUESTION IS.... CAN I HAVE THE ACTUALL ACTIVATION OF THE N20 ON A STEERING WHEEL BUTTON SO THAT I CAN CHOOSE WHEN TO SQUIRT AS OPOSED TO IT ALL BEING SET BY THE PERAMETERS PROGRAMMED INTO THE S300 ? I STILL WANT THE S300 TO CONTROLL IGN RETARD AND FUELLING ITS THE ACTUALL SHOT OF NITROUS THAT I WISH TO CONTROLL. WILL THE S300 ACCEPT AN INPUT TO ACTIVATE FROM A SEPERATE NON HONDA SWITCH ?
ALL ADVISE GREATFULLY RECEIVED....

hi there....thx thats encouraging,
any chance of anybody letting me know how to set that up ?
as i said i would like to be able to hit the button coming out of the corners and that lets the s300 retard the ignition etc,........... but not on every single wide open throttle moment as this car is primarily a road going vehicle.
i would like to have it rolling roaded/mapped only once then choose when to boost, as oposed to having to switch maps for NA or N20.... hope that makes sense........

use the button as the "arming input" to the ecu.
wire the button in series with an arming switch,to stop inadvertant taps on the button.


then make sure the activation parameters are outside what u expect to see,when u intend to spray the gas(within reason of course)
