Pulsoids, anyone using them?
Anybody tried the Pulsoids from the Wizards of NOS? Has anyone pulse modulated them? If so how did they work? What did you think of them? Any problems? They are kind of expensive but they look very quality and if they do what they say, they should be awesome for a progressive system.

I don't have a problem with the design or WON, but they are designed for Europe's little **** pots, not American Muscle. They also do not have to much good to say about any US nitrous company.

Why reinvent the wheel.
See poster #2 for nitrous information.
Sometimes using what is already known to work is a good thing.

I agree that using what is already known to work is not a bad thing. But it is not in my nature to just to follow everyone else down the road just because that is where every one is going. I normally go down many different paths, and I will be the first to admit that I'm not always right either.
After going down many different paths I often end up going down that same path everyone else went down, but at least at that point I go down that path with much more knowledge!I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel, what I'm trying to do I have never seen done on a C5 before. At this point I'm giving it a 50% chance it will work. If it does work I will share it with everyone on the forum. If it don't work I will try it a different way, but I will not fail. As Thomas Edison put it a long time ago "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that it won't work." That is a good way to look at every project!

Any suggestions on any other solenoid that will PWM really well?
The reason for this post was I was hoping to find someone who had pulsed these and know if they work like they claim or not. $250 for a solenoid is a lot for just a guess. It has been my experience that US solenoids act exactly like the WON people claim. They don't pulse very well, they really don't seem to pulse at all, it is more like the will resonate in a very narrow band. You can change springs and change where they resonate but it don't seem to change band width very much.I don't think much of their kits, I don't like the idea of running plastic line through the car. I would hate the thought of one of those plastic lines blowing and filling the car with 15 pounds of nitrous while driving down the road! But their Pulsoids sounds like a good product.
And 250bhp is more than the little **** pot that I'm building can handle now anyway.

I think you are on the right track. NX noids are being used by the truck load for progressing. I have heard of no failures from this. The US market is being swamped with progressive controllers and every company adding their own. Sure, WON would like us to believe that they are the only ones that have progressive noids, but it's just not true. Cold Fusion Pro noids (400hp mondo noids) also are great for progressing and have a lifetime warranty just like NX. We carry both brands, so either will work fine. Both companys are also totaly USA made, and staffed by US employees. If you want a little insight, check out ls1tech in n2o section and do a search for progressive controllers or something similar.

Edit: Oh ya, the new generation of controllers can be programed for what pulse width is needed for a given US noid, so some of what they say is no longer a valid argument.
