What happened to the thread on the New NX Controller Title says it all. I was looking for more info on the new 2 dial NX controller and can't find it anywhere. Was it pulled? Is this unit still available from NX? I thought the thread listed the price from Nitro Dave at $287 or so... Dave, Is this correct? Any info will be great!
Mike,
After further testing.NX has determained that these systems are best off left to the motorcycle guys.The larger solenoids are to much for this unit.I deleted the thread so no one would be mislead.

Well, THAT SUCKS!
Ok, I'm calm now. What would you recommend that does a similar job? The 20 second program feature it had was exactly what a manual shift needed. What else can do this, meaning run a 20 seond program regardless of the activation switch going on and off as I lift off the gas for a shift?
One last thing. When I was reading the specs on that controller it stated 45 amps for "EACH solenoid output". Do the larger solenoids pull more then that? I know I am only using a 40/50 amp relay for both!

Include window switch capabilities, and more importantly - timing retard for LS1 and you've got a definite winner! 
I'm looking for a 'one box does it all' installation - instead of having to hook up multiple units and try to get them to work in sync.

Window Switch, whats that . Hell the only two reasons I want the pro-con is to be able to keep a flatter torque curve, but build mad hp, and more importantly is to be a hair safer blasting 200 on stock bottom. I know the bottom can hold it when dialed in, but I love coming out the hole rather hard (sounds like a cheap porno reading) and 200 shot wont make for a good ride off the line with stock rear, bottom and other things.

I'm with CAT3. Just need a controller to "soften" the big hit on the low end, BUT need it to work with a manual for me. The NX controller had a 20 second window of operation which would have been perfect for me. Does anyone know of a controller with a similar function?
NXRicky, can NX just beef-up the transistors in the unit to handle the amp draw? I really do not want to go with a unit with all kinds of bells and whistles, just a bullet proof simple progressive with a set window of operation time. I can't believe these would not sell like crazy to manual trans guys!
