best gear to spray?

[dream36realms]

I was wondering when to spray. I also wanted to know procedures. OK, I'm spraying with window switch and want(or need) to disable the system, Do I let off the gas slowly to get the WOT to disengage? or can I just let go of throttle? and with shifting gears do I try to keep the RPMs to real high to rev limit? Lastly what gears are best to spray in?

any gear is fine just do it above 3 grand.

Just let off like you normally would...and DON"T HIT THE REV LIMITOR.


The gears you want to spray in are the gears that you still have traction in.

Ok I wasn't sure with the wet kit and all the safeties. I was a passenger in a supercharged V6 fiero with a 100 shot dry, when he blue all 6 piston rings by letting go of the gas at a VERY high speed, thus spinning the car in a 1435deg kinda way. So letting off gas normallty will disengage due to the WOT and if I set my RPMWS at 5500 I could (in theory) just pass through the spray?

I was wondering when to spray.

-Anytime above 3 grand. You say you are using a window switch?? Digital is easier but the manual w/ pills works too. 3200 is a good safe point to start and I have my shut off set at 6300. You DO NOT want to spray into the limiter, if you do very bad things happen.

I also wanted to know procedures. OK, I'm spraying with window switch and want(or need) to disable the system, Do I let off the gas slowly to get the WOT to disengage? or can I just let go of throttle?

- The WOT only activates when the throttle is fully depressed. If you install the switch correctly, it should only "click" when the throttle arm on the TB is all the way open. This activates the fuel/n20 solenoids and also shuts them off when you let off. Before I got smart and purchased a window switch, I used to launch at almost WOT so as not to hit the WOT switch and spray under 3k. Window corrects that problem.

and with shifting gears do I try to keep the RPMs to real high to rev limit?

- not real clear on that one, I shift quickly through the gears so it's not an issue, especially with the lightweight flywheel, rpm's drop fast.

Lastly what gears are best to spray in?

-Again, over 3k but it's mainly common sense here. I have done it off the line and have downshifted on the highway to merge with it, it all depends. Any gear that you are not spinning lol. Just use common sense.

4th is the most fun to spray/boost in if you have an MP3

Thanx ya'll!!! I'm hooking my window switch in the mornin' then going down to screaming eagle for 20lbs filled, just hope the clutch will do ok with 50shot

Do you still shift at 6500? or shift at 6300?

i spray in all gears. and i happen to like 3rd gear pulls the best while spraying

2nd is great if it can hook up, otherwise 3rd it is

yeah, gotta agree with both you and Josh on that one, second is fun but running somebody from a 3rd roll is teh bestest.

I dunno, I like my 2nd roll fine since it's a bit taller than the mp3, but 3rd is a beast once I'm moving.

I agrre, i bet the accord would too. [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/lol.gif[/img] Anyways, I think the all summed it up but from what I know if you can hook, spray. Dont hit limiter and have fun!
