spray to what rpm??

Going to start off with a 75-100shot wet and was wondering where you M6 guys are shifting and where do you have the window switch cutting off?? My car hp peaks out at 6100 and stays flat to 6400rpm. Mods in sig!

Thanks for your input

start spraying from 3000 and cut it off about 100 above where you plan to shift. shift right b4 power drops off. at least thats the way i do it

oh and set your system to only spray at full throttle- when you lift a little to shift it'll quit, and you'll be right back in it when you go back

What if you power shift? And leave the throttle planted on 2-3 and 3-4 shifts?

Iam wondering what is a "SAFE" rpm to spray up too with a cam only car! 6000,6200,6400.....I have a buddy that sprays up to 6800 with a heads/cam combo M6 but I don't plan on doing that.

Spraying up to 6000rpm = years of trouble free fun????
6200rpm = years of trouble free fun????
6400rpm = could be years or months of trouble free fun?????
6600rpm = have fun while it last???
6800rpm = is your crate motor on the way???

Thanks

i spray my ws6 m6 t.n.t wet kit,from 3,000 right to 6,800rpm's. i have a window switch and lift my foot off the gas between shifts. i should tell you i do have a forged shotr block,but if i did'nt i'de still spray all the way to 6,800.spray your car right to your shift point for best results.
