Default Couple more ?'s, Thanks!

Just got my 5177 kit today! I've ordered a Harlan window switch and I'm going to get a bottle heater from dynotune. Kit looks easy to install, for those wondering.

My question is about the window switch. I know I don't want to spray through shifts, I also have a 3600 stall, what would be the best rpm's to set the window switch at? Also, I don't really want to spray on my launch, should I buy a timer or just not go WOT until after the launch and then nail it? If I'm not going to go WOT until after I've left the line, I was thinking of setting the window switch around 4700-5800 since once I've left the line the car never dips below that until I am no longer WOT. If I didn't have a window switch and hit the rev limiter, would I go BOOM?

I've never used or been in a car with nitrous. Any help is appreciated.

Check out this window switch from BMN, it might be exactly what your looking for, first gear lock out and other benifits.
