Default window switch or WOT switch?

I am not 100% sure what the WOT poopiech does. I assume that when the pedal is to the floor, the nitrous is activated. The question I have is does it spray in every gear from the point i hit the activation switch? Thanks for any help!

First forget anything you say on the fast and the furious. No one uses a button to activate nitrous. A WOT switch completes the circuit when the microswitch (Under the pedal) is depressed. A window switch is completes the circuit at a designated 'window' between two RPM points. If you had to use one or the other, use the WOT switch as N2O is a WOT system. If you used a window switch and did not have a WOT switch in parallel, then your nitrous would come on everytime your car saw 3000 RPM's. Not good.
