Default Quick Question

Will you blow your engine on a 100 shot if you miss a gear?

Not if you're using a Window Switch or some sort of management that cuts the nitrous at a specified RPM.
I use a window switch with a max RPM of 6800.

If you're not using anything and the rev limiter kicks in, it reduces the flow of fuel, which can cause a lean burn, and that can be catastrophic with nitrous.
Someone said in another post that the rev limiter cuts fuel completely so theres no chance, but why chance it?

I'm with him. Get a window switch, or try to be very careful when your shifting with just a WOT switch.

The Dynotune window switch/throttle position sensor seems to work well and it is very easy to program, as are most other ones.
