just go with a WOT switch, you're going to be off of the throttle when you shift (i'm assuming that you're not power shifting) so all the other will be un-neccessary.

The Zex kit also will shut off nitrous flow if the Nitrous Management Unit see a drop in fuel pressure. I don't know if you got a kit or are piecing something together, but I thought I would mention it.

With the Zex kit, it only sprays at WOT, no other throttle postition. It uses TPS voltage wired to a Nitrous Management Unit as the switch, not an actually switch. As I understand it, I have heard it is bad to spray at anything but WOT, probably having to do with fuel pressure and fuel/nitrous mixture.

The WOT switch is so that is engaged only when you are full throttle. The Window Switch is another safe guard, so if you miss that shift and then hit WOT in neutral… well, that's bad... mmmm kay
