A window switch, as in momentary contact switch?
WOT switch, gives a shot every time you hit W.O.T.?

Set up for nitrous to turn on only when TPS reads WOT, starts spraying at 3500RPM shuts down at 6800 RPM; redline is 7200RPM. I also changed fuel pumps, filter, ohmd the injectors, and my O2 sensors are showing fueling is good in the base tune

Wet system is very brave on the LT5.

I have boxes of new NGK spark plugs for nitrous (Cold) if you need them.

I was just on the line w/Zex tech......issue for nitrous backfire is typically when the car is too lean......if I have fuel puddling in the intake at 3500RPM I have a serious problem; my A/F ratio on the car currently averaging 12.5:1 ....richest is 11.8

We are talking about 9-1/2hp per hole, you have gone above and beyond so for as safety measures are concerned.
The cooling effect as the Nitrous Oxide phase changes from liquid to gas inside your air intake would on its own deliver measureable increases, before the benefit of extra Oxygen and gasoline are accounted for.

Does this LT5 have Port Throttles? (I'm guessing not, but cant remember for sure)

I can hardly wait for your successes.

Ran the nitrous today; no explosions Car pulls, squats hard, pretty seamless with a 75 shot, can light the tires up from 2nd gear roll. Probably need to tune it on the dyno, will probably just jump to the 100 shot

I used a 180 ohm resistor to pull timing via the IAT

Something to keep in mind, while nitrous is cheap you spend about 60 per 10lb bottle, that will add up over time
