I've been working on my M6 over the winter months, so my setup is not tested yet. I'm using an MXII w/180 wet setup. I plan to launch at 3500 with a 10% shot and 2nd - 4th progressive from 50% - 100%. Window set for 3000 - 6000.
All I have left to do is get my timing tuner installed and i'll be ready for some testing.
I'm a NOS novice running a 150 wet using the the Mallory 685, (it has all the features you need for Nitrous, window switch and spark retard, etc...) I run mine from 3500 - 6500 with a momentary button and the window switch. I don't use it in 1st gear, still looking for a way to automatically eliminate it from 1st, otherwise it's all on the window switch. Could use some advice on how to get the NOS not on in first, but on in 2nd and above.
Stock motor 180 shot left at 6000+ I could never get me msd window sw to work so I had to let up to shift. but I had it set for 3k-6k. I just took the kit off for a TT set up.
I'm running the HSW Big Hit Dual nozzle dry 125 shot, Nitrous Outlet Digital dual stage window switch, FPSS, and 42lb injectors. It has the ability to do first gear lockout, but I spray it in every gear from 3100-6000. Usually launch at 2500, still on street tires. Not much luck with that... can't hook at all. Kind of afraid I'm gonna break the rear...
Getting some good suggestions. Thanks! I'm looking to run a 100 shot with the window set at 4000 to 6500, I just gotta see where to launch my car on the juice. I'm used to launching at about 5500 to 6000 on motor. It's going to take some getting used to launching a lot lower. I got the 12-Bolt but still got the stock drive shaft and tranny!
Check out our digital windowswitch. It will let you lock out the activation in any gear. So lets say you have traction issues in first and do not want it to hit until second. Just simply lock that gear out.
i run a carb setup on my victor jr and use no other safety setup other then the wide open throttle switch. i am spraying a 100 shot and just rev to 5500 rpms and as soon as the clutch comes up the nitrous is on and i love it, just shift fast.
i really do need more safety devices but then again i need a good excuse for getting a new motor after i blow this one.
I have the Timing Tuner and set the delay function to .8 sec. that gives the tires time to plant before the N2O hits. It works great. It also has the window switch built in. I have the WS set from 3250 to 6100 and I shift at approx 6300. It works great.......... With a M6 car you have to have a window switch. It would be careless not to. The Tin=ming Tuner has it all built in. Window Switch, Delay feature, and timing retard for only when the nos is spraying that allows you to run advanced timing for N/A.
Before anyone has a stroke, I already tried the search but didn't find what I was looking for.
I'm looking for the type of setup you use and what rpm launches, window switches set at what rpm etc. Any specific info would help! Thanks!

5500/6000rpm clutch dumps from hell. Spray 1st stage in 1st gear, 185rwhp shot, 3500 to 6500/6800rpm, then when I hit 2nd gear the second stage comes on at 4700rpm and somewhere in the area of 50 to 100rwhp shot, depending on conditions and runs through to 6500/6800rpm. Then 3rd stage is on a button on the wheel and we spray that with another 50/75rwhp shot when ever we fell lucky, lol, and try to get off of said button before we hit the limiter and/or the wall, lol. It's a wild ride, but that's what I grew up around, AA Fuel Altereds. Yea, I could be much faster/quicker with an auto and all that, but like the quote in my sig... In my web in the wiring section is a write up on the first gear lock out that costs about $3.

Same reason why i stayed true with a 6 speed. Auto, just isnt fun, yea it turns the numbers, but its not any damn fun! haha
My 99 SS with lid/longtubes/12bolt/gears/clutch, I had a NOS 100shot with the MSD Digital Window Switch. I never had it at the track but on the street I would launch around 5krpms and have my window switch set at 1900rpms to 5900rpms shifting at 6100/6200rpms....

I am also running the timing tuner with a .6 sec delay. My window switch is presently set at 3250 to 6700 - rev limiter is set at 7000 - shifting at 6600. I speed shift and do not power shift so the nitrous cuts out only during the shift. When running on motor I change my shift light pill and shift at 6800.
