Post N2O activation ?

I am planning on spraying a 125 shot this weekend and was wondering if the way I have things setup is safe? I only us a micro switch for WOT activation and want to know if the system will be activated to soon like this. I've sprayed a 75 shot with no problem, but what about the 125 ? I ususally stall against he converter to about 2200 rpms then when the light goes on I go to the floor. I figured that with my 4000 converter I should have plenty of rpm before the n2o comes on, but what do you guys think?

It shouldn't come on, but you can get a window switch just in case. Hope you got some good tires because 125 lot funner then 75.

What I meant was that I didn't want the n2o to come before I got the necessary rpms so as not to bend a rod. As for tire, my 27x11.5x15 hossier qtp's hook quite well tot he tune of 1.59 on the motor.

I used to spray without a window switch on a stalled LT1. But it only takes one low RPM activation to cause a big boom! I personally would never spray without a window switch.

If the engine should happen to stumble for some reason you could have a big problem. Thats less likely with an auto but it still is a real possiblity. Get a window switch and no worries.
