Question Nitrous users need advice

I was just curious if anyone is using this and what their experience is with it. I am running nitrous, but am looking into getting a mastermind. Just wanted to know what ppl think about it and how hard is it to install and all that jazz. Thanks.

i know of two people that have had tons of problems with the mastermind. But i have heard of some people on this board with good results. I would personally use the FJO progressive controller. Its cheaper and more reliable. http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/catalog...product_id=952

That sounds like an option. I bought a mastermind for $100 though. I know a couple of mustang guys with it, and thats why I got it. I guess I should have asked first. Well see. Thanks for the option

Well for $100 i would just go ahead and hook it up. If it doesn't work right then go ahead and get rid of it, but if it does then keep it. Thats what i would do.

Progressive controllers do tend to be hard on the solenoids though so keep that in mind..
