If not, the NOS one is pretty nice all in one type

I am running the FJO unit on mine with no issues. Will run 2 stages, first gear lockout, ramping rate for nitrous, nice piece and I am running the NXL as well.

00 is reset mode...starts over with loss of signal
01 is resume mode...picks up where it left off....times out after 30 sec of lost signal, can be reset by switching unit off/on
