I have it

I have the same kit. The controller works find and installation is really simple. I have the 75 shot installed just to get use to N2O. Hoping to get tuned to a 200 or 250 shot soon. I have a stand alone fuel cell mounted in the trunk. A lot cheaper than the under the hood ones. If you need any info PM me.

Do you have the timing retarded for the 75 shot?

I was looking to spray 75/100...should I have the car tuned accordingly? Or should I be ok?

I`ve not retarded the timing yet, I just made a few passes with the 75 to make sure everything was working properly. Some say for a small shot the timing does not need to be retarded. I will be running race fuel in the stand alone cell to prevent the possibility of a lean spike, and reduce the amount of timing retard needed. I made around 6 passes and everything looks good. I checked the plugs and they are in excellent shape (BR7EF). Just waiting on a day to go to tuner. I also bought the blanket to keep the bottle pressure correct.

I don't have the kit but I have the progressive controller. I haven't used it much yet but so far it works good though. Make sure you ground the 2 ground wires correctly or it WILL short out and it's toast since there is no internal fuses.

My display flickers intermittently and Holley wants me to send it in to be tested which would involve me cutting all my wires so I just deal with it for now. It doesn't seem to effect the performance of the unit though.

If I could do it over again I would have probably saved and got the NX maximizer 5 for more features (especially the first gear lockout since I have a M6) and a bit better quality. But for the money it seems to gets the job done. I'll be able to give better feedback next season
