Lingenfelter NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center Installation and Operating Instructions5
1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the NCC-001 Progressive Nitrous Control Center by Lingenfelter Performance
Engineering. There are few Nitrous Controllers on the market that can come close to the feature set offered by the
Lingenfelter Performance Engineering (LPE) NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center. The NCC-001 is capable of
controlling up to four stages of nitrous (if the fuel supply is controlled by the ECM or other method), with many
different available triggering and disabling input options available for each. The NCC-001 controller interface is
designed for ease of use and access at the track as all of the settings and options available in the NCC-001
software program are also available on the controller itself. The NCC-001 controller also features enough internal
memory to save three user-defined nitrous programs for quick access in the case that track conditions change
and a different setup is desired.
While the NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center can be installed into virtually any vehicle, it was especially designed for
late model EFI vehicles. Special attention was paid to integrating the NCC-001 into GM LS powered vehicles
including:
1998-2002 Camaro
1997-2012 Corvette
2010-2013 Camaro SS
2004-2006 Pontiac GTO
The features alluded to already, as well as the numerous other features listed in the following section, make the
NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center from Lingenfelter Performance Engineering one of the most advanced Nitrous
Controllers available while still offering the ease of use that renders it practical for seasoned race veterans and
weekend racers alike.

Lingenfelter NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center Installation and Operating Instructions7
1.2 NCC-001 Warnings
DO NOT submerge the NCC-001 controller in liquid or directly wash the controller with a liquid of any
type.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to follow all guidelines and safety procedures provided within
this manual, as well as any other manufacturer's product that will be used in the installation or
operation of the NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser to follow all guidelines and safety procedures supplied with
this product and any other manufacturer’s product used with this product. It is also the responsibility
of the purchaser to determine compatibility of this device with the vehicle and other components.
Lingenfelter Performance Engineering assumes no responsibility for damages resulting from
accident, improper installation, misuse, abuse, improper operation, lack of reasonable care, or all
previously stated reasons due to incompatibility with other manufacturer’s products.
Lingenfelter Performance Engineering assumes no responsibility or liability for damages incurred
from the use of products manufactured or sold by Lingenfelter Performance Engineering on vehicles
used for competition racing. Lingenfelter Performance Engineering neither recommends nor
approves the use of products manufactured or sold by Lingenfelter Performance Engineering on
vehicles which may be driven on public highways or roads, and assumes no responsibility for
damages incurred from such use.
The NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center are intended for use in the controlled environment of a racing
facility. NEVER use a nitrous oxide injection system on public roadways as it may be illegal, but also
extremely dangerous.
It is the purchaser's responsibility to check the state and local laws pertaining to the use of nitrous
oxide for racing applications. Lingenfelter Performance Engineering denounces the use of its
products in illegal street racing activities.
LPE recommends that nitrous safety solenoids be used anytime the primary nitrous solenoids are
pulse-width modulated. The use of nitrous safety solenoids allow the flow of nitrous to be terminated
in the event that either of the primary nitrous solenoids get stuck open.
Before switching the NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center ON for the first time, check the wiring to verify
that all wires are correctly routed and securely attached to the controller. Incorrect wiring of the
NCC-001 could potentially lead to damage of the controller, as well as the vehicle itself.
LPE strongly recommends that you position your nitrous bottle pressure sensor on the tank side of the
nitrous bottle valve. If the nitrous pressure sensor is located on the tank side of your nitrous bottle
valve, the valve can be closed between runs as the sensor can still sense the bottle pressure while it
is being heated. If your nitrous pressure sensor is located on the outgoing side of your valve, the
valve must stay open anytime the bottle is being heated so that the nitrous pressure sensor can
regulate the pressure. Heating the bottle with the pressure sensor on the outgoing side of the valve
and the valve shut could potentially cause an extremely dangerous over-pressure condition. If you
choose to position your nitrous bottle pressure sensor on the outgoing side of the nitrous bottle valve,
you will be doing so at your own risk. Per NHRA rules, the bottle's over-pressure safety disk should be
connected to a blow down tube that allows nitrous to be vented out of the vehicle in the event that
the safety disk ruptures. Before using the nitrous bottle(s), make sure that they are properly secured
to the vehicle. If using a bottle heater, make sure that the bottle heater is properly secured to the
bottle and that it lays completely flat around the bottle.
All electrical joints, as well as any other places where exposed wires are present, should be
sufficiently insulated using heat shrink tubing and possibly electrical tape. Failure to do so could lead
to damage to the wires, as well as the electrical components that they are connected to.
The NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center is designed to be mounted somewhere in the passenger

Introduction 8
compartment of the vehicle. Do not mount the NCC-001 where it could be exposed to extreme heat,
such as the engine compartment.
LPE recommends the use of resistor type spark plugs and RFI (radio frequency interference) and EMI
(electromagnetic interference) suppression spark plug wires on all EFI engines, as well as any vehicle
that has electronic control modules on board (including the NCC-001). Failure to do so may result in
erratic operation of not just the NCC-001, but all electrical control modules in the vehicle.
1.3 Limited Warranty
LPE warrants the Lingenfelter NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center to be free from defects in material and
workmanship under normal use and if properly installed for a period of 180 days from date of purchase.
If the controller is found to be defective as mentioned above, it will be replaced or repaired if returned
prepaid along with proof of date of purchase. This shall constitute the sole remedy of the purchaser and
the sole liability of LPE. To the extent permitted by law, the foregoing is exclusive and in lieu of all
other warranties or representations whether expressed or implied, including any implied warranty of
merchantability or fitness. In no event shall LPE be liable for special or consequential damages.

1.4 NCC-001 Notes
For the sake of simplicity, options and settings that are accessed through either the Nitrous1 (N2O-1) or
Nitrous2 (N2O-2) menus will by accompanied by an illustration of the setting for Nitrous1 only. Note that the
Nitrous1 and Nitrous2 menus have the exact same options and settings—they just control different nitrous
stages.
Many of the wiring descriptions and diagrams for the NCC-001 in this manual assume you have the optional
NCC-001 wiring harness (PN: L480310000). This harness features wires that are pre-labeled with the NCC-001
terminal labels, as well as ring terminals with heat shrink insulation on one end.
The wiring descriptions and diagrams in this manual that involve connecting the NCC-001 to a fuel or nitrous
pressure sensor assume that you have the optional fuel pressure harness (PN: L480290000) and nitrous
pressure harness (PN:L480300000). These harnesses feature wires that are pre-labeled with the applicable
NCC-001 terminal labels, as well as ring terminals with heat shrink insulation on one end.
The NCC-001 is not designed for use on aircrafts.
Because the Nitrous Control Center computer software and the NCC-001 firmware are not organized in the same
way, settings and options are not necessarily found in the same places on both platforms. The options and
settings described in this instruction manual are organized in the same manner as the NCC-001 controller.

3 Installation of the NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center
The following subsections detail the installation of both the NCC-001 controller in the vehicle, as well as the
Nitrous Control Center and NCC Controller Flash Utility software programs onto a personal computer. In the
following subsections that cover the installation of the controller itself, several wiring configurations have been
provided to give you ideas of how the controller can be installed. Please note that a combination of these
configurations may be necessary to achieve your desired operation. In the subsections that cover the installation
of the Nitrous Control Center and NCC Controller Flash Utility software, the installation steps described should be
explicitly followed in order to properly install the software. If the software is being installed on a Windows Vista or
Windows 7 equipped computer, some of the screens and dialog boxes may differ slightly from the screen shots
provided in this manual as the example installation was done on a Windows XP equipped computer.
3.1 Installation of the NCC-001 Hardware
The following sub-sections detail the installation of the NCC-001 Nitrous Controller in a vehicle. Each sub-section
will have a description of the configuration and a wiring diagram. Please note that the following configurations
represent just a small number of possible wiring configurations for the NCC-001 Controller. The optional NCC-001
wire harness (PN: L480310000) is composed of 22 color-coded wires (10 feet in length) that are all individually
labeled on their insulation. Make sure that each of the wires required for the desired configuration are correctly
installed into their respective terminals. If you choose not to use the optional NCC-001 wire harness, use the
supplied terminals to make your own harness. The terminals on the NCC-001 will accept 16-22 AWG wire. It is
recommended that the controller ground wires, the controller +12 volt power wires, and the solenoid ground wires
should all be 16 gauge wire. All other wires can be 20 gauge wire. Refer to Appendix C: Tables and Diagrams for
a chart showing the recommended gauge for a length of wire based on current draw and voltage drop. After
crimping a terminal to one end of the wire, use heat shrink tubing to seal and insulate the end going to the NCC-
001 to reduce the chance of a short circuit.
The configurations that will be shown in the following sub-sections are:
Progressive Nitrous Without Fuel Control
One Stage of Progressive Nitrous and Fuel
Two Stages of Progressive Nitrous and Fuel
NCC-001 Controlling the Solenoids Via Nitrous Solenoid Driver
NCC-001 Controlling Nitrous Solenoids Via Relays
NCC-001 Controlling a Bottle Heater
NCC-001 Connected to the LPE LNC-2000 Launch Controller
NCC-001 Connected to the LNC-2000 for Simple On/Off Control
NCC-001 Connected to the Pin on the ECM for EFILive Nitrous Operating System and Fuel Control
Connecting the NCC-001 to Throttle Position Sensors on Mechanical and Electronic Throttle Vehicles
NCC-001 Connected to the Clutch Position Sensor
NCC-001 Connected to the Clutch Position Switch
Converting a CPP Sensor Signal Into a 12 Volt Signal Via Conversion Module
NOTE: The wire colors in the wiring diagrams below will most likely differ from the wiring in your
vehicle. Identify the wires of all applicable components in your vehicle and confirm their individual
functions before beginning to wire the NCC-001 controller.
WARNING: LPE recommends that Nitrous safety solenoids be used anytime the primary solenoids are
pulse-width modulated. The use of nitrous safety solenoids allow the flow of nitrous to be terminated in
the event that either of the primary nitrous solenoids get stuck open.
NOTE: The wiring of the NCC-001 Nitrous Controller may require additional lengths of wire depending
on where the NCC-001 will be mounted on the vehicle.
NOTE: The wire harness colors described in this installation manual assume that you are installing the
optional NCC-001 wiring harness.
Refer to Appendix C: Tables and Diagrams for assistance in determining the proper RPM pulse count, engine
speed wiring locations, vehicle speed wiring locations, etc.

Installation of the NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center 16

Lingenfelter NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center Installation and Operating Instructions17
3.1.1 Progressive Nitrous Without Fuel Control
Use this configuration to control the nitrous solenoids, but not the fuel solenoids. This configuration is known as
"Dry Nitrous" due to the controller not providing fuel control. Users installing the controller in this configuration will
still need to supply the fuel, just through means other than the controller itself. Two examples of ways to achieve
the proper fueling with this configuration are:
Use the Relay Output to trigger the nitrous/E85 mode in the ECM via the EFILive Ethanol Custom Operating
System, as shown in Section 3.1.7.
Connect the Analog Output to an auxiliary injector controller or aftermarket ECM input.
NOTE: Because the fuel solenoids are not controlled using this configuration, a third and fourth stage of
nitrous could be achieved by connecting the third and fourth nitrous solenoids to the "Fuel Solenoid 1"
and "Fuel Solenoid 2" outputs on the NCC-001 nitrous controller. The third and fourth nitrous solenoids
would then be configured by changing the "Fuel1" and "Fuel2" graphs.
WARNING: Nitrous solenoids are capable of drawing massive amounts of current, which can allow the
NCC-001 to see too much current and to possibly overheat. The NCC-001 controller is rated to withstand
a maximum, non-sustained current of 20 amps per solenoid channel from the nitrous and fuel solenoids.
For higher current applications, LPE recommends using relays so that the controller does not see too
much current.
WARNING: DO NOT leave the nitrous arming switch ON as it can overheat the safety solenoids.
Connect the solid red wire labeled "12 VOLT PWR" to the "+12 Volt" terminal on the NCC-001 and to a fused
(15 amp) and switched 12 volt DC source.
Connect the solid black wires labeled "GROUND1" and "GROUND2 to the "Ground1" and "Ground2" terminals
on the NCC-001 and to the battery ground stud. Be sure to connect BOTH ground wires. Since the NCC-001
controls the ground side of the solenoids, much more current will travel through the ground side of the NCC-001
than the +12 Volt side.
Connect the yellow wire labeled "ARMING INPUT" to the "Arming Input" terminal on the NCC-001, through a
WOT switch (alternatively, the TPS can be connected to the TPS Input), and to one of the wiring terminals on
the Nitrous Arming Switch. The Nitrous Arming Switch output should then be connected to the input of the
nitrous solenoid(s). If the combined current load of the nitrous and/or fuel solenoids exceeds the capacity of the
NCC-001, LPE recommends controlling the solenoids via relays. Depending on the current rating and quantity
of the solenoids you are using, it may be necessary to use separate relays for each of the nitrous stages. If
using relays to control the solenoids, see example wiring instructions in section 3.1.3.
Connect the striped dark brown wire labeled "N2O SLND 1" to the "N2O Solenoid1" terminal on the NCC-001
and to the ground side of Nitrous Solenoid 1.
If a second stage of nitrous is desired, connect the striped green wire labeled "N2O SLND 2" to the "N2O
Solenoid2" terminal on the NCC-001 and to the ground side of Nitrous Solenoid 2.
If the user desires to activate the nitrous using engine speed, to data log the RPM, or to control a shift light,
connect the striped white wire labeled "TACH INPUT" to the "Tach Input" terminal on the NCC-001 and to a
suitable RPM Signal Source. The RPM signal source could be the tachometer output lead of the vehicle, the
switched side of the ignition coil (negative side), or the 5 volt RPM reference signal. See Appendix C: Tables
and Diagrams for the location of the tachometer output wiring on some common GM vehicles.
If the addition of a shift indicator light is desired, connect the solid green wire labeled "SHIFT LIGHT" to the
"Shift Light, +12V" terminal on the NCC-001 and to the shift indicator light.

Lingenfelter NCC-001 Nitrous Control Center Installation and Operating Instructions19
3.1.2 One Stage of Progressive Nitrous and Fuel
Use this configuration to control the one stage of progressive nitrous and fuel.
Connect the solid red wire labeled "12 VOLT PWR" to the "+12 Volt" terminal on the NCC-001 and to a fused
and switched 12 volt DC source.
Connect the solid black wires labeled "GROUND1" and "GROUND2 to the "Ground1" and "Ground2" terminals
on the NCC-001 and to the battery ground stud.
Connect the yellow wire labeled "ARMING INPUT" to the "Arming Input" terminal on the NCC-001, through a
WOT switch (alternatively, the TPS can be connected to the TPS Input), and to one of the wiring terminals on
the Nitrous Arming Switch. The Nitrous Arming Switch output should then be connected to the input of the
nitrous solenoid(s). If the combined current load of the nitrous and/or fuel solenoids exceeds the capacity of the
NCC-001, LPE recommends controlling the solenoids via relays. Depending on the current rating and quantity
of the solenoids you are using, it may be necessary to use separate relays for each of the nitrous stages. If
using relays to control the solenoids, see example wiring instructions in section 3.1.3.
Connect the striped dark brown wire labeled "N2O SLND 1" to the "N2O Solenoid1" terminal on the NCC-001
and to Nitrous Solenoid 1.
Connect the striped tan wire labeled "FUEL SLND 1" to the "Fuel Solenoid1" terminal on the NCC-001 and to
Fuel Solenoid 1.
If the user desires to activate the nitrous using engine speed, to data log the RPM, or to control a shift light,
connect the striped white wire labeled "TACH INPUT" to the "Tach Input" terminal on the NCC-001 and to a
suitable RPM Signal Source. The RPM signal source could be the tachometer output lead of the vehicle, the
switched side of the ignition coil (negative side), or the 5 volt RPM reference signal. See Appendix C: Tables
and Diagrams for the location of the tachometer output wiring on some common GM vehicles.
If the addition of a shift indicator light is desired, connect the solid green wire labeled "SHIFT LIGHT" to the
"Shift Light, +12V" terminal on the NCC-001 and to the shift indicator light.
WARNING: The fuses that are positioned in series between the 12 volt power source and the relays are
labeled as 30 amps each. It is important to note that the amperage rating for these fuses are just
suggestions and that the amount of current that your solenoids can pull will determine the correct fuses
for your system.
