Default HSW MicroEdge Controller question

i'm a newbie to n2o and i wanna spray my car, and was looking at this nitrous controller, and it seems to me as if it does it all (and for a great price). would this be a good controller to plug up to a dry kit?

Hell yea, it's the best deal going. To get anywhere close to the goodies it offers you must go to the NOS Launcher or one of the 700 Trick set-ups. It has even more goodies than stated there. I have them listed on my personal web, but you will have to google to find it. we are not supposed tp link non supporting vendors. Also with your dry you will wnat the Interface also from HSW.

so i can make it spray progressively like the NOS launcher right? i was thinking about setting it to shoot 50-75-100-125 from 3000-3100-3200-3300 so it doesn't just all hit at once. and how does it hook up to detect WOT and fuel pressure? do i need to buy gauges or anything?

no it dont work like that....+ why the hell would you want that??? going from a 50 shot to a 125 shot like that would be the same damn thing...hahaha ddude youll be fine spraying a hundo shot all at once....and then when you want more bump it up. id be more worried in a two step before a progressive controller.

alright well i just wanted to make sure i was being safe on my motor. ok so if i'm wanting to max out at 150 shot i could just spray it and not worry about it? and by two step are you referring to the dual stage control feature on this unit?

If you need to break up a small shot like your going for traction, you could just lock 1st gear out, or put a delay on it. no real need for progressing at this time, IMO. It has a built in TPS switch that get wired in upon install to control your WOT activation, or you could use a conventional WOt micro sw that comes in your kit. It doesn't have logging fuel pressure ability, but can be hooked up to your narrow band or wide band and display a/f ratio and lean/rich shut down.

It's fast becoming the #1 controller when bang for the buck is considered. Most WS are the same price and offer only TPS and on/off rpm. Many, many hundreds are out in use currently.
