WOT micro or Window switch

07 STROKER · January 26th, 2008, 12:28 AM

hey guys...do I need both the wot micro switch and a window switch ....im getting the idea that a window switch does the same thing as a micro switch...and by reading some installs...guys are only using window switches on their s197.

no....u can just runa window switch and will be fine...
i have the edelbrock window switch....

mustangrebuilder · January 31st, 2008, 03:48 PM

but you need a tach adapter when you run a window switch....msd and auto meter has them....

you need one cause you will not get the right rpm signal...

07 STROKER · January 31st, 2008, 05:50 PM

already got the adapter...Autometer

if you get the 8969 msd window switch, you won't need a tach adaptor.

i am running both window and wot switch. I don't want the juice spraying on accident if I am just cruising down the road in that window. better to be safe than sorry.

Get the WOT switch also. They are a lot cheaper than a motor rebuild. When you start cutting corners on nitrous than you are asking for trouble.

+1 to the WOT switch.. you aren't planning on hitting the nitrous unless you're at WOT anyways, right?

How is that the case? Dont the 99+ cars have to have a tach adapter for any tach related item?
