40372, When to use N2O -launching Posted by wickedtalon, Feb-19-03 03:45 PM
I was just wondering if you used N2O throughout all of the gears or just armed it in 5th. Mine is halfway hooked up so far.. its too freakin cold out to finish it and the streets are too icy to test it out. I will soon though. Also, do you launch as normal? dump at 4000-4500? I just want to make sure i dont floor it when I dont have the clutch engaged and screw everything up. What do you do?

it is my understanding that you only spray at WOT in 2, 3, and 4 gears. launching with n20 (unless you have a very small shot...under 50) is a waste cuz youll break your tires loose and just spin off the line. i hear alot of people say not to spray in 5th gear either...hear it causes tranny probs.

when I spray in second my car barely has traction, and it spins the tires when I hit it in third... First is pointless, but it makes for cool burnouts.

i use mine right after launching, at the top of first after getting traction. then i have a wot switch and leave it armed through the gears. i really have no problems with traction, just a little chirping between all the gears but that's all, but with a wot switch just remember to take your foot off the gas between shifts.

I run a 75 shot and I just launch then activate it as soon as I get traction in first. Never had any real traction problems doing it that way. Oh and dont spray in fifth, it is very stressfull on your tranny and engine.
