I am getting one sooner or later, but has anyone hit their rev limiter yet becaus they didnt have one to shut off the nitrous? Everyone is saying its crazy not to have one....

My buddies GTP (A4) has been running a 100 shot wet NOS system without a window switch for 1.5 yrs. However, he has gone through 4 race trannys. His car shifts fine, does not hit the limiter but tears trannys apart. Get it when you have a chance, its worth the $80.

I launch off the bottle using my 3,600 stall as a window switch for down low. I have not hit the rev limiter yet on the top end. I have my shift light set about 300 rpm's early, because when on the dope they come up pretty quick.

I never ran a window switch and i do spray through the shifts. NEVER hit the rev limiter,stock trans lasted about 4 months doing that. Had the trans rebuilt by 12SCNDZ and it is holding up great. Still spraying through the shifts with about 50-60 nitrous runs and countless n/a runs.
I am swapping to a TransBraked 700r4 this winter and i still wont plan on running a window switch.

The new trans is going on 6 months of abuse,fluid looks like new. I knew the stock trans wasnt gonna last spraying through the shifts.

 

The rev limiter is there for a reason.....stuff happens engine over revs...limiter prevents damage to engine. Not a good thing when nitous is involved....thats where the window switch saves your tail. Its cheap insurance.
