Default NX nitrious express question ?

i have herd some people say that you should drop your rpms 300 to 500 for your shift point when running nitrious. example if you have been shifting at say 5800 rpm you should drop it to 5500 or 5200 rpm, is this true ? :cheers:

:yesnod: If you spray in between shifts on a MN6 you will most likely hit the rev limiter which will cause you to go very lean on the juice and then BANG :smash:

you shouldnt be spraying between shifts if you're using a WOT switch. as soon as you take your foot from WOT, spray stops. unless, of course, you dont let off the gas at all between shifts. drop your shift points only slightly, if any, by maybe 100-200rpm's. i dont shift much different when spraying. running just fine. been spraying the engine hard for ~8000miles.
