Spraying through shifts?
Whats the opinion on spraying a 150 shot through WOT shifts on a TH400?
Is it better to do a window switch to spray so the nitrous is off at your shift point or do you go ***** out and spray the whole run?

***** out on a stock 4L60E. Not recommended by some, but works for now, and has worked for over 400 runs in less than one year. Do a search, theres only been like 4 of these threads. But most all are for 4L60E. I would think the 400 is way stronger, but then you may not want to find out its weakness.
Good-luck.

Re: Spraying through shifts?
what if you have your shiftpoints and firmness raised? I was told not to do it, since I got the tuning done. I was spraying through the shifts, on my stock 4l60e, before the tuning, can I still spray through after the tuning?

Re: Spraying through shifts?
I have been spraying thru on mine, I am by no means saying if yo udo it will be peaches and cream. But on mine it is safe so far...hell for all I konw the damn thing could go out tomorrow. I do have my rev limiter raised and shift firmness. On the bottle thing shifts smoother than before tuning (with Predator!). I would not do it if you using the HPP3, my friends trans started leaking, another bent a valve, and heard rumors that the way HPP3 adjusts shifts is not the right way. I however do not know, but after my friends getting jacked and the fact both used HPP3, then I just wouldnt do it.

Re: Spraying through shifts?
Yeah but that is with a TH400 not a 4L60E. I know the original question was about a TH400. Just curious about my application too (Not trying to sound like an *** or hi-jack a post with that first sentence). So, how many people are doing it on a stock 4l60e? I just don't want to blow the thing up. TIA

snake-eater--a search is in order for you. we debated this topic a while back for the 4L60E, and it comes down to this, although not recommended you can do it. Depending on all those little things like maintenance interval etc...

Re: Spraying through shifts?
I'm considering spray right now and talked to a reputible nitrous salesperson who said its much easier on the engine to load it one time than to turn the spray off and on serveral times in a run. Just food for thought. Frank95z
