I have a4k stall and A4, and i just picked up HSWs Microedge. Its a window switch, and then some.

I just wanted to take some of the strain off the trans, by not spraying through shifts and the Microedge has alot of other safety features built in.

nvr spds put it very well. The window switch feature will certainly help prolong the life of your drivetrain. You could even lockout first gear which can help with traction and also save your rear and tranny. microedge is packed with other safety features as well.

I run a single stage window switch from DynoTuneN2O, but only use the nitrous at the track.

Awhile ago I tried to spray a 100 shot on an empty street....yeah, I was all over the road spinning through all the gears.

I didn't last year, but I'll be running on this upcoming year

Reason being, I'm running a manual shift th350. Should my shifter not ratchet or if the cable fails or something, I won't have to worry about spraying on the limiter, since I plan on spraying through the shifts

I am not stalled, and I do not run one..
Bought one and it was having alot of problems... was not engaging, blah blah blah etc..
So basically we pulled out HP tuners...

My shifts are tuned for me to spray from the hit of 1st gear all the way thru 3rd.....

But you are stalled so will probably make a big difference... I guess I will be having to re-tune if I get my 3200...

I overall like to hit the switch!!!! better then just mashing the gas... Plus I dont have a m6 so it makes me feel like I am doing something more then just hitting the gas pedal and driving.. LOL
but that is just me.....

With a loose converter that flashes high, you can spray that low. I spray from about the same RPM.

I would not run a nitrous kit without one.
