So if you only wanted to spray 2nd and 3rd how would you go about it? Just arm it when you feel/anticipate the shift to 2nd?
Obviously Im learning a window switch set to ~3500-4000 (as low as 3000) would be the way to go then and just let it do its thing from 1st gear, and its ok to spray through shifts? Im pretty sure street tires wont handle that, but maybe.
Thanks for everyones help so far!

Yeah on a 75 shot it will be fine to spray through the shifts. The way you do it is just arm it when you want it to spray, then when you completely floor it, it will do so. Simple as that. A window switch is a good idea too

This is where buying a good controller from the start will save you in the end. Some good controllers have gear lock outs. Not actually lock out a individual gear but the first time through the rpm window once the system is armed. Nitrous is addictive and that 75 shot won't last long. Get a decent controller now and have it that way your not buying twice. As already stated a good controller is your wot switch, window switch and progressive at the minimum. A better one could be gear lock out, lean and rich shut off just to name a couple other benefits.

So Steve at efi performance / frost tuning pretty much said "we don't do that" in regards to removing timing from the spark table and said I need a lingenfelter box.
so who's right here? Can it be done? Should it be done?
I tend to think outside of the box, Sometimes I go to far out of the box lol.

You don't need a progressive controller but you do need the ability to adjust timing without relying on others. Get the LNC2000 and be done with it. I give you less than two weeks of actual use and that 75 shot will be a 150 shot. It's inevitable. It's as easy as swapping two jets to add more power with almost no downside. It will happen.

That's still just a controller with no progressive, for $75 more the mini gives you progressive. Neither one of these controllers pull timing though, what they have is a output signal wire to turn on whatever timing device you use. Unless your pulling timing in the tune your going to need a separate controller and timing device.

your starting to see the picture now! Along with that lnc2000 listed there is also a HSW Interface for sale in the classifieds for $115. What that is is a fancy IAT tricker. With it you'll have the ability to pull timing in 5 different temperature setting in the tune. You can easily switch between them using the dip switches in the device. There is so many options to set a system up that it can make your head spin. Best advice is to find a good right up of a system and follow it to a t. Plenty of help here also if you have questions.

What sucks is that Chevy allowed Ford to get the best of them in the ECM dept. You can get something like an SCT chip put in a mustang for example and have a toggle switch mounted in the coin slot and switch between 8 different tunes that you've already flashed onto the chip. With our cars, there is no ability to mount a chip. It can only hold one tune so you have to physically flash between a N2O tune and a NA tune. In a mustang if you feel the need for N2O, just shut the car off at the light, put the toggle switch at N2O tune, and turn the car back on.
Luckily the enthusiasts have found ways of dealing with the Chevy ECM like pulling timing through the traction control switch and such, but the only difference in your NA and N2O tune is the timing that is pulled. You would need to load a custom N2O tune for best results and then you have to switch back to NA tune each time.

That's the nice part about the interface. It can actually add fuel to through the maf also. I always use the closet lean fuel jet I have and dial in the fuel through the interface/maf. Both the timing and fuel feature activated with the noids so a true n2o and na tune. The interface was truly a really nice piece for sure.

Setting up traction control is still your cheapest way out. But here's the interface https://ls1tech.com/forums/parts-cla...hlight=Nitrous. With the interface you'd still need to set up the different timing amounts with tuning software. But once they are set you can just flip a couple switches for changing shot size.
