Setting window switch below 3k rpm?

From my understanding a direct port system eliminates the fuel puddling issue because you're almost completely bypassing the intake. So would I be able to set my window switch at a lower rpm like 2k to help with the bog off the line if I'm running a fogger system?

NO!

Think of it this way....

At 2000rpms you're getting 3x the amount of nitrous in the cylinders as you would at 6000rpms.

This is why you have the huge spikes in torque on the initial hit.

If you still want to do it have a reputable shop set it up. I'm sure they will do a small initial and a longer progression.

My 2 cents is don't do it. I ran a 250 plate for a couple years and never sprayed that low

What's your normal window switch set at ttshovel I'm not trying to hi jack this thread at all. But I am curious to know what rpms you started at and ended at? I turn mine off 300 rpms before I shift @ 6500 rpms

This was in a sbc. Started at 3k. 50% initial, 1 second ramp. I ran mine through the shifts as I was using a built auto. Otherwise like you're doing, shut it off before the shifts
