Nitrous Express Maximizer

Has anyone seen or used this?

Kinda pricey and with the basic kit and the GENX2 upgrade total nitrous setup will be around $1600.I think it's a good thing to have, because unlike the ZEX it actually piggybacks your O2's to make sure A/F ratio is good or it will shut it down, elimitaing the chance of engine damge.(Found out ZEX wet kit does not do this, only their dry kit) I'm just not sure if there some sort of extra harness needed to do this. That might add to the total cost. All the other features are sweet too. Ramping, programable in any gear at any time, built in window switch(more safety), TPS(don't have to mess with mounting a throttle switch), and I think it can even piggy back an ignition device to retard timing when needed. I've still got 3 months left in the sandbox so maybe the price will come down a bit by the time I get back. What do some of you nitrous guys think?

The Maximizer is an awesome tool, but if you want safety, stick with the reccomended jet sizes where you are guaranted a solidly rich a/f and simplt run a fuel pressure cut-off switch to shut down the solenoids if fuel pressure gets to low.

If you plan to go all out with the bottle, then sure the Maximizer is a great investment... but for the great majority of people, the basic kit, GenX upgrade and maybe a couple personal changes to electronics is real all they need.
