Default spray through gears with 75hp shot?

I have an a4 with a tnt f1 kit. Only jetted for 75hp shot now. Wanted to test the 75hp and maybe 100hp shots tonight but i havent gotten my window switch in mail yet. I have a stock car other than 4.10s and vig3000. What do you guys think?

I have had a few cars with gas, and for years I have sprayed through the gears, with no problems. It's pretty hard on your trans. when you spray 150 or more though. Go out tonight and spray it and have fun... Let us know how you did...

I got away with it on a 175 (NX Wet Kit)and 220 (NXL actually jetting size) for a long time. It only took one time with low trans fluid and there went the bands and clutches, no more D/OD. Its fun, expensive sometimes, but fun always!

Please don't cut corners. install the window switch. When I sprayed my first bottle everything worked great. Second bottle, everything was perfect, except for some reason my WOT microswitch stuck the throttle wide open. It's a good thing I had the window switch or I might have blown my **** up that night. I fixed the simple problem and now all's well. Be smart about it.

I'm a newbie, can someone explain the "window switch" to me, with my car an A4, this switch will "cut off" the nitrous during the auto tranny shifts?

There are coule of different window switches, most work by setting them for a certain rmp to cut off and reactivate your system, some work be trans pressure. Since your trans works off of pressure when the pressure drops below a certain pressure the switch turns the system off then back on...
