I've seen boxes that allow the selenoids to open only after a set rpm but I've never used one. I used a WOT switch with mine and an arm/disarm switch. I'd click that switch after I hit 2500 rpm in 1st gear and use it solid for the rest of the run. Nitrous at low RPM hits soooo hard but it's sketch on cast pistons and stock rings IMO.
I wish I had traction problems. I need to get my TC installed.

However, a quick glimpse at the Nos and Nitrous Express sites shows that these controllers have come a long way from simple RPM and WOT switches.

I don't care about the crap you post in other forums, but I do care what you post here. You consistently mislead people with your advice here which will end up costing members money and making their cars worse.
Whenever you post crap, I will always be here to correct it.

When I am thinking about it I still recommend the Dragon Torque Converter to the guy with the stock rims and non LSD with traction problems...Why because he can still time the nos activation, and when he is not running the nos which is most of time the car will be more responsive, faster 0-30mph, fun to drive, etc...
Verylost I know exactly what I am talking about, and when I offer advise it is usually coming from hands on experience... Do you have a nos system and or a Dragon Torque Converter on your car? I don't think so, and I really don't think I need to defend myself amy further... I NEVER OFFER BAD ADVICE ON PURPOSE...NEVER.....If I am wrong I will be the first to admit it and appologise....
What can you offer VERYLOST from experience that is productive? I am done with you and if it makes you feel good to try and continue to discredti me, knock yourself out, and have a good time doing it I don't care......I think readers can see you are trying to start something and being a complete jerk..... I challenge you to link up a thread showing my continued fiction as you claim, besides my first post ever to this forum which everyone has already seen....... I still don't know what I did to you to make you go off like this...Crazy.... Take your redeline and or prosac to control that hatred of yours.....I told you it's not good for your health...
FOR THE RECORD WHICH YOU CALL FICTION -
For everyone reading the Dragon Torque converter is a great mod and I recommend it as the first mod to consider when moding a Lexus SC400 from stock on any automatic transmission...NOS or no NOS you can't go wrong with DTC.....If you have traction troubles get an LSD, coilovers, and wide rear tires and you will be fine....
Also, The APEXI piggy back unit as far as my experiences go are not favorable...Also it is kind of a dead end mod when you need timing changes made from certain engine mods......I RECOMMEND A DIFFERENT brand of piggy-back ECU to use on your SC400's...
I will stick to my guns VERYLOST and I believe my claims are not fiction, and I also believe I have more experience with the mods we are currently talking about then you do....These mods have been in my car for almost two years and I should know exactly what I am talking about.....
