I'm not sure if this will help, but we also add in controls based on boost (forced induction) pressure (psi) within the intake system. Boost pressure drops like a stone if you miss a shift, which causes the spray to stop. I'd bet there are measurable differences in intake vacuum pressure depending upon whether or not your n/a foxbody's engine is under load. If so, you could use this to trigger the spray (eg. via a Hobbes switch).

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
