You can probably order that, I'm actually waiting on an interface harness now, its on backorder. Email them, don't even try to call them on the phone, they never pick up, EVER.

You won't get anyone to pick up. On one of my days off I called every hour from about 10:00 am to 6:00 (yes you read that right) and never got an answer. Awful customer service, they need to be ashamed of themselves.

Shoot them an email, here is the part number for the harness itself but it is not listed on the website.

HSW-ELEC-RPMWDO-H and it's $24.99


I am going to order one soon as well. Hope this helps. I sent an email with the request and got a response in a day or two.

Just give me a shout in the future if you need something. Obviously I can not help the microedge situation but I can possible help in the future.

I'd get rid of that microedge too. I've seen many people have issues with it. I can tell you this, I'll never buy anything from harris again! I sold off my harris stuff and replaced it with Nitrous Outlet parts and couldn't be happier.

None of the other brands has an equivalent to the interface. If they did I'd have switched.

What all are you doing with the microedge?

graham, you seem to be helpful for a lot of people, i will be sure to give you all business. i agree with redvert theres not anything else i have seen that has had all in one controller like microedge. as for lean shutdown,wot switch,window switch,nitrous delay, and progressive which on my setup, i dont use progressive. if there was something else like that from another rep, i would do away with HSW.

All of those are included in essentially all progressive's, save the lean cutoff. While I do agree the lean cutoff is nice feature as just one more fail safe, A FPSS and decent tuning will more than cover you.

Thanks for the props. I like doing a lot of tech. Sale's call bore me to death.

I'm working towards spraying a dry direct port. Their maf interface makes the injectors add fuel so I don't have to run separate solenoids. I also intend to eventually run alcohol with a fuel composition sensor in the return line. I'd like to be able to do this without an independent fuel system. If you guys offered something that could do this and match the other functions of the interface I would have been interested.

I'm sorry you misunderstood, I was talking about the interface, not the microedge, different product. There are in fact products out there that do everything the microedge does and more. The Trick performance gauge (discontinued), the NX octane gauge and controller combo and the holley launcher are just a few I can think of off the top of my head. Personally I'd take the holley launcher launcher over the interface any day.

MAP based ramping and 12 step progressive FTW.

What would make you want to go that route?

Not sure I understand your question. Why spray dry? Because I only need half the parts, that makes the system more affordable (yes I factored in the cost of the interface), gives my engine bay a cleaner look and provides less work for me down the road (won't have to change fuel jets, just flip a switch on the interface so the injectors add more fuel).

What does this have to do with e85? In a flexfuel setup where the ratio of alcohol and gas is constantly changing, the engine can adapt different air/fuel rations with fuel composition sensor. The same cannot be said for fuel jets, they remain the same and cannot adjust to change air/fuel ratio. I shouldn't have to explain that this is bad. At this point the only options I see to make this work are to either install an independent fuel system or to install the interface. The interface is the cleaner, less work involved and less costly of the two.

I am aware of how it works. I was looking for your reasoning to taking the road less traveled.

Have you ever ran a direct port before? Tuned a nitrous car on e85?

What does your car make on motor?

Again just curious, always interested in other peoples opinions.

Not yet. There is a first time for everything isn't there.

Like I said I'm still working towards it. It will be a long time before I'm able to make this happen (Assuming this silly dream actually comes to fruition). I have a lot of work ahead and there are lots of parts I have yet to acquire. The end goal is around 450 motor, with about a 200 shot and room to grow. Yes this is all extremely unconventional, I know, I could probably achieve this with a simple wet or plate kit like everyone else. I just like the idea of added safety with the direct port. I also have yet to see someone with a system like this, isn't part of the spirit of hot rodding to be different?

BTW sorry everyone for jacking the thread.
