Hello guys....
Have a quick question regarding progressive controles for N2O. Do these things really do any good? A freind of mine has been struggling with NOS brand controller and he has never had any good luck with; another friend uses the Jacobs unit and he swears by it?!?!?!
So what's the deal, I mean if there are so many being produced they must work, any experiences????

The problem with the progressive controllers is that they are real hard on the solenoids.Better off using a digital ignition box and pull timing then ramp it back in as needed.Amount of nitrous will be the same but the horsepower will be less when the timing is pulled back.we do this on small tire cars using lots of nitrous to leave the line then bring the timing back in as it goes down the quarter.
