Default Where do you shift on n2o?

Just trying to figure if I'll be safe shifting at 6400 instead of my now 6000 since my rev limiter is up from the cam?Thanks!!! <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

I short shift on the bottle at 6000. I shift at 6500 on the motor. All my other cars including this one has went faster short shifting on the bottle. I think you get alot more nitrous in the cylinders if you short shift thus making more power. Your best bet is to just test it at the track and found out where your car likes to be shifted.

Yes, you'll find that your best shift points are lower on the bottle than NA. If you shift at 6500 NA try 6000-6200 on the bottle. The more you spray the lower the best shift point will be.
