Question for King and the rest of you nos guys
My pc3r has f**ked up so I was wondering if I can still use my dry kit without it (Schnitz). I am only using a 36 jet so I am thinking that air box sensor can compensate for this amount of extra fuel. I know Fastestr1 used his dry kit without any pc for quite a while and had zero problems.
Cheers

a 36 jet might be a bit much with only the Airbox Temp sensor.
You can however do the radiator temperature sensor resistor mod and richen up the bike all around and run a 36 jet safely.
I believe Wayne posted in another thread here details on how to do this

Get a 470 ohm 1/4 watt resistor(radio shack 5 for a buck) and splice it into the orange wire on the temp sensor on the block... It will add I believe its 8% more fuel... Thats what I have with my 2 stage setup... I am afraid of PC's.. King told me how to do this...

Richard,
This sounds a great idea. I live in the UK so I will phone around a few electrical places and see what I can find. Have you got a picture of just the resistor on its own so I can have a closer look.
Cheers

I run 2 stages with 34 jets and the resistor mod.Stock timing and no pc3.Use good fuel

You can run a 34 pill without a PC3R. I did many times, no problems. If you're worried, do the resistor. Never tried the #36 without a PC3R.

Just in case you need it, here's a link that shows you how to read the color codes on a resistor:

Thanks Richard,
Has King got any step by step pictures showing this procedure? coz I am pretty crap when it comes to things electrical and I want to make sure I get it Right.

Its too simple... One wire... The orange one... Cut it in two and put one end of the orange wire on one end ofthe resistor(solder) and the other end of the wire on the other side of the resistor... Tape it off so it dont short out or anything... Done..

Richard,
I phoned round a few places today but no luck. What kind of shops are likely to sell this resistor?. What is it usually used for?
Cheers

radio shack doesnt have stores on that side of the pond? :/
You could try Ebay...or searching the web for a place that ships resistors online.
Id think a TV or Radio repair shop would have something like that (or be able to order it)

Just found one at an electrical shop not too far away. The guy said I could take the bike down to him and he will solder it for me. He said the soldering plus the resistor will cost £1.00 thats about a buck fifty to you guys.
Just one more question. How does the bike perform when not on the gas. Does the 8% fuel make much of a difference to the performance.
Cheers guys for all your help and advive.

It will hurt your gas mileage a bit ....and your pipe will be "blacker"...you also will probably have a bit more flames shooting out of your tailpipe after chopping the throttle from WOT....but other than that....it shouldnt matter much

any way you could wire that resistor to a two-way switch so that it would only be active when the nitrous was on, and run normal once the switch was flipped to the other side?

if you take out your catalytic converter the resister will help the idle and ridability

I'm no tech-eee (electronics) but...won't the wire going to and from the "switch" change the resistents of the resistor???
It IS a good idea if it will work though...

Kev,
It shouldn't change the resistance enough to notice. I figure that if you're worried about it, you can hook up the switch wire & resistor to your meter and verify thigs before you put it on the bike.

Well guys I fitted the resistor today. The way I have set it up is as follows:
First I cut the orange wire and fitted a male a female connector to each end. I then put a female and male connecter (solder) to each end of the resistor. This way I can interchange between the two which means I wont be running rich (8% extra fuel with the resistor) when I am not using the nos. A 2-way switch would have been even better but I didn't have one laying around.
Cheers guys for all your help

Mate you should be able to use your horn button as the switch. Just need someone who can do wires n' stuff (not me!). Good luck with hitting 200mph this year!
