Default Jacobs Electronics: Nitrous Mastermind

I always noticed fancy devices like these, but when I looked at the Jacob's Electronics Nitrous Mastermind, I noticed it had some great features.

I'm getting ready to go direct port now, and am going with a bigger hit of nitrous. I wouldn't mind getting this unit that does everything, but I want to make sure this unit is of good quality before I buy it.

Anyone have any experience or recommendations on this unit? Thanks!

I've heard mixed reviews about people receiving 'bad' units. Mine worked great. What's cool is that a passenger would never know that you had nitrous, because you don't feel that NOS 'surge'. It 'feels' like all motor, but after 2min. that feeling will go away!

Thanks for the input HC4, that helps... I'm on the fence right now with it, because I've never ventured from Nitrous Express, but am always willing to if someone has a good product at a good price.

If anyone else has any experience on this unit, or have heard good or bad, please let me know. Thanks.
