    Moved from the Performance section. Help with my electric over air shifter

    I'm reposting this here since nobody replied when I posted it in the Performance section.

    Ok, Here's a diagram of my air shifter set up from Dyno Tune. A little further on in the instructions it talks about how you need to add an ignition kill but doesn't explain what that looks like. So I recall when you push the button to shift, the ignition is killed first then the air solenoid gets powered and allows tank pressure to move the air cylinder that shifts the gear.
    Can someone show me a pic of a simple ignition kill and most importantly how to wire both the kill and air solenoid. I'll be using it for occasional drag strip play so no time adjustment needed

      Paul, here is a picture of a old Air Shifter I had laying around. When you push the shift button, it would symoustamily shift the the gear and kill the ignition. This is a old air kill switch set up. I'm sure there is a better kill switch than this now a days. Private message me if you want more pictures and information. Good luck 👍

            We replied in the Performance thread. You need a kill box.

              This is how we use to do it, before all the fancy electronics and timers. Simple and straight forward.👍

                Also consider using CO2 instead of air. You won't have to pump it up after every run.

                  Do remember at one time the older MRE systems took a "pill" for engine delay. We also ran a no kill system drag racing when we used a fully auto tranny.....

                    I'm only looking for a diagram of the electric layout. I want the button to be the "kill".
