Default Which Progressive controller?

Hey guys I am new to the whole Nitrous thing and was wondering which Progressive controller to go with. I don't need anything to crazy, just a basic easy to work with one, that is reliable.

Let me know if you have any questions.

We (NOS) just released a new controller that is very simple to install and uses a handheld programmer. Here are some features:
2 fully independent nitrous controllers in one small bulletproof case
Hand held programmer for ease in programming
Allows you to mount the main box out of sight
Integrated throttle position activation switch eliminates the need for a separate WOT switch
Progressive nitrous ramps feature:
a) Delay time programmable from 0 to 9.9 sec.
b) Start percentage programmable from 0 to 99%
c) Ramp time programmable from 0 to 9.9 sec
d) End percentage programmable from 0 to 99%,
e)Nitrous can be programmed to ramp up or down
RPM on/off control eliminates the need for a separate window switch
Solenoid control channels with a 40 amp load capacity for large solenoids
Two output signals for use with timing retards or activation switches
The part number is 15974NOS it can be bought thru any NOS retailer.

WE stock this new controller from NOS. Its a pretty sweet little unit. We also carry the FJO unit from NX and the maxoimizer. These are my favorite 3 at this time.

I have this and will be running it as soon as I can find time to install my kit on the Z06. We just installed one on my Dad's 01 Z/28 and will be testing this Sunday.

We have these in stock as well.

I have not heard from you since you picked up the controller. Is it in your car yet? How do you like it?
