When I put a nitrous system in I used those wires for the controller. Just cut that connector off and crimp on whatever connector type you want. Why keep the legacy connector?

Pin 1 - Term 30 (B+ Hot all times) - Red/Grn
Pin 2 - Term 15 (B+ Switched) - Grn/Blk
Pin 3 - Telephone Mute - Yel/Blk (wired to amp I15 and radio A3)
Pin 4 - Term 31 (Gnd) - Brn

Thanks man! Yes you are quite correct it would be best to cut off and go new but as it happens I'm an electrical nincompoop so I was trying to make it simple for myself I'm sad to say I don't know how to or have the tools to wire up connecters and pins but will learn and do. Yes I wanted a whole accessory harness to just snap in. Not sure what use pin three gave you?

Nitrous???? Please create a whole new thread..... pictures!! At least show us the GO switch. Did you have to change engine internals?

I used the nitrous system to get some more power from a 2.5L engine that was already on it's way out. The plan was to keep putting bigger jets in until mayhem. In reality the engine was dumping it's coolant too fast. I had to let it cool for about 30 minutes between runs before I could refill it. Nobody wanted a big puddle of oil and coolant on the dragstrip at 9:00 pm, so we never got to see the full potential. The system did work well: https://www.nitrousexpress.com/proton-fly-by-wire-nitrous-system-w-10lb-bottle-20422.asp
