Window Switch for Nitrous

I have a really simple queston, I have read all the post on this topic.

I have read spraying in first is bad, for the fact that you can redline and hit the rev limiter in less then 2 seconds. But what if I set my Window Switch from 4000-6500rpm will that be ok, so that way after it sprays it cut-offs and then I shift. So that way I'm not going to mess up and redline and hit rev limiter BOOOOOM!


Thanks for all the intelligent answer[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

that will be fine, as long as you set the switch to cut the nitrous before the rev limiter....use nitrous in first if you learn how to launch with it.

i ran into a problem when trying to instal mine, I could not get it to work and I called msd, they said the window switch is not compatible with our car yet- msd is working on it. BTW, NX and NOS both get their window switch from msd and put there own stickers on them, they wont work either. Msd said they should have a solution around springtime.

PS- If you figure a way to rig it to work, the hell with msd, post how you did it!!!!!

dont spray, not worth it for a autmatic, a lot more expensive to rebuild a automatic tranny- for manual civics you need to upgrade the clutch because N20 burns out the stock one so fast- just something to think about

go ahead and spray the house down. If your tranny goes, then dont bother rebuilding it, just go for the manual swap.

What are you talking about its so much better just think you are starting out in a gear and you dont use it till you are above 3000rpms and then you dont have to shirt so its not killing your gears
