I spray at idle everytime for the last six years..Sometimes in second gear too... Idle is at1500rpms in my car and I have never had a problem.. Just lit it up right from the start, power and tires spinning..... 100 shot though, tuned to run a little rich with cool running spark plugs... No problems at all to report....
I don't see why low rpm nitrous activation would be a problem? Maybe someone can enlighten me on this?

the ford modular intakes dont really flow that well and it cause the fuel to puddle up in the intake and BOOM there you go..

First off- i would never run nitrous, and there are plenty of guys on here- that have run that amount - and not had problems with there ls1/ls6/fast intakes.. id have to say they didnt have the system setup right in the first place- for the intake to blow off that quick..

the ls1/ls6 intakes flow better than the modular one do so thats why they have more problems blowing them on the spray, but gm intakes will blow also..

I don't have a window switch on my car, but I have a converter that goes to 4200 on the brake, so it's never seeing less then 4200, the rev limiter is set at 7800 and I shift it at 7000, so it never sees that either.
With a stick car, there's no way I'd not have a window switch on the car, but with a loose converter/automatic car, I wouldn't bother as long as the shift point is a good distance from the rev limiter.
