lol, if i hear one more person tell me i need a window switch................
i had a backfire because the head's where 100% stock, the valve springs where at 70lb's, i had 2 bent intake valves, and all my exhaust valves where pitted.
also had a blown intake gasket, but that could have happend from the backfire.
you have enough valve float when your spraying nitrous, and its gonna light it.
after rebuilding the head's and replacing almost everything on em, i have not had a singe issue.
the backfire caused the vaccum tree to explode on the one side on the driver side.

i have a arming button in the car, and a throttle switch on the throttle body.
so at 100% full throttle it is pressing the button, but wont do a damn thing untill i arm it.
also at 90-95% throttle, its not touching the button, so it ONLY spray's when i arm the nitrous, and i am full throttle.
i might get a window switch now that im going to a manual transmission.
but with my automatic, id to a burnout at the track, get the first set of staging lights lit, arm the nitrous, get the second staging lights lit, power brake the car up to 1300-1500rpm, and as soon as i see that 3rd amber light, im off the brake, and full throttle, activating the nitrous, and i dont get off the trottle till i pass the 1/4 mile line, so i spray non stop from start to finish.
but this is a stock transmission, so its pretty much finished.....
