Default WOT swtch related question

If i was using a WOT switch for my nitrous and i didn't want to spray until second gear could i wait until i shifted into second to arm the system and then let her eat?

Yes if you have time to go through all the trouble of arming the system after shifting.

Or you could run one of our window switches with built in TPS and any gear lock out features.

Yes you would set the unit to lock out first gear. Then activate the system. It reads the RPM. So when you hit max RPM and shift gears it pics that up and counts it as a gear change.

no i mean if i was going to try to skip first gear without any type of window switch and gear lockout. Just me, the WOT switch, and the switch to arm the nitrous.

EX. Once the car shifts into second i flip the switch to arm the nitrous and let the WOT switch do the rest. Would that work?

Im actually about to order your rear seat hump bracket as we speak, if i can find it...

you guys sell tr6's?

Yes that would work...I did that for a while in my 94...was alot to do in the short period of time between launch/shift/arm/hang on...the window switch w/gear lock out makes it more consistent and safer.

I know it will be a little more difficult, but im trying to slowly get into this n2o stuff. without jumping in head first. And having too much stuff on my plate. Also im running an A4 and was planning on letting it shift on its own, so that one less thing to worry about.

i figure flip the switch when i hit second and let things happen. I'll definetely be ordering a window switch/gear lockout from you someday though...
