Default need to pick a window switch

I'm going with the HSW dual dry kit...pretty basic setup as this is my first n2o setup. I like the MSD digital one, but is there another one out there that will suit my needs better? One maybe more user friendly/simpler?

I would recommend the Dynotune Window Switch.
http://www.dynotunenitrous.com/store...?idproduct=194
Capability for one or 2 stages. Built in electronic TPS so no need for a mechanical wide open throttle switch. Makes for a much cleaner install. Saves you money on your kit. ALso has multi gear lockout so you can choose what gear you want the nitrous to start in. Say you do not get traction in first you can have the nitrous kick in in second.

Enjoy!

We carry a large selection to choose from on window switches. WE stock the MSD you are looking at as well as some better options.
You can find them here.

This may be a dumb question but does the gear lockout work with a m6?

Yes the gear lock out will work with a manual transmission...it is only monitoring RPM, not the actual shifter position.

it doesnt know which gear you are in. It only monitors RPM and rpm is all that you are concerned about. You dont want it spraying too low or past your rev limiter.

Yes, well that is what a window switch does. But im interested in the gear lock out. I want to have the system on but not spray until I get to 2nd gear, which is what this feature will allow. I'm just curious how it accomplishes this

Each time you shift the rpm's will drop. Our unit senses the drop and counts so it knows what gear you are in. This way you can spray in first - or second - or third or whatever you choose.

I didn't even know that Dynotune box existed thanks for bringing it up. The lockout's probably a good idea considering my car blows the tires off in first NA . Are all of these window switches comparable when it comes to ease of install and being user friendly? This isn't an all out racing machine, I'm just trying to get started in n2o and have a solid, but simple and easy to use system.
