Default DP setup -- major q?

Hi guys,

I have a 385 forged internals w/ LS6 stg-3 H/C... (all ARE)
LSX-90 with DP-setup and have its own fuel devlivery system.

Here are the questions:
As of now, I purchased LS1-Edit, so that I can swap the programs from NA to nitrous when I go to the track.

Is there a awy of not having a direct hit of 300 rwhp shot ?
It's freaky insane/scary.

I know there are Progressive Controllers, but all seem to go with time.
For arguments sake, those will activate everytime the system activates, right ?
So everytime I shift, I get the same delays ?
Is there a model out there that you can control RPM-wise ?

Also, what about timing-controller.
If I get that as well, there would be no need for LS1-Edit, right ?

I haven't picked the car up, so I can always sell the LS1-Edit to local user instead, if I can do what I want with a progressive-controller + timing-tuner.

I've checked these therads:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/nitrous-oxide/172231-can-timing-tuner-used-maximizer-retard-nitrous.html
https://ls1tech.com/forums/nitrous-oxide/181691-progressive-controller-timing-tuner-how.html
https://ls1tech.com/forums/nitrous-oxide/173873-who-has-best-progressive-controller.html

Also do these, have RPM-window-switch incorporated into them ?

If I can get the timing retard to work when the nitrous-system is ON, I'm a happy camper... since there is no need for LS1-Edit and having to swap programs all the time.
If the progressive-controller comes w/ incorporated window-switch, it will cost me less, cause the window-switch needs to be bought anyways... since it was stolen and I'll get the progressivity

What you guys think ?

The maximizer is the magic key.

Too bad its so hard to make a timing tuner work with a maximizer.

based on this thread, it's possible to run the timing tuner with the progressive:

cause if I'm able to have maximizer work with timing, there is no need for me to have 2 tunes and always have to reflash the PCM.
Since the fuelsystem for N2O is independant, the tuning for NA and nitrous would only differ in the timing advance taken for the nitrous use.
At least that's how I see it... unless there are other stuff I'm not seeing.

Does TNT have anything of that kind ? If so, I would be interested since my whole kit is a TNT.

There is no other nitrous mastermind like the maximizer.

Dave, do you also have the Timing-Tuner you can sell... can't find it on your web-page.
That would actually save me the hassle of ls1-edit and having to swap programs.
I've attached a diagram that I came accross... using the TTwhen it goes on as a WOT trigger.
I'm assuming the TT would go on only on WOT.
By the way, how to adjust the TT ? I see no buttons.
I know the Maximiser is adjustable via the computer/laptop.

Thanks guys... it looks like this setup will be much better than with a direct 300+ shot and having to swap tunings everytime.

I still not sure if the TT has a way of knowing if @ WOT... if not, I'll put the WOT-switch as I used to, and put in inline between the activation and the TT so that the TT only gets power when in WOT.
That way, the engine tuning rund optimally for NA even if switch of system is active, until I decide to gun it.
Man I'm happy to find these answers... you guys are awsome
Am I making sense on this one, or am I off ???
