Default HSW MicroEdge Nitrous Controller vs. NItrous Outlet Digital Progressive Controller

I'm looking for something that will control the following and work w/ an LPE timing reduction box.

- RPM window switch
- TPS activation switch
- A/F shut down switch
- Ability to turn off in 1st gear

The HSW option seems to cover this for $169.99

http://www.harrisspeedworks.com/prod...&cat=58&page=1

The Nitrous Outlet option seems to cover this w/ some overkill options for ~$199, but they say they don't know when they'll have any available.

http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/catalog...3&product=4372

Nitrous Outlet has this other one for ~$149-159, but it doesn't have the A/F shut down switch and they don't know when it'll be available either.

http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/catalog...0&product=4004

I see people that have bought these NO ones though... did they just sell out and the supplier is behind?

Should I wait for NO or find one in the classifieds, or just go with the HSW MicroEdge?

I assume either work ok with the LPE box?

I went with the HSW microedge. But no real reason as to why I went with it other than its the first one I found and seams to do what I needed it to do. sorry no real help. I haven't installed it yet need to upgrade the fuel system to make the NO2 work though since I already have a cam. I'll be over 600hp with the nitrous. so everything is sitting in a box waiting to put on.

I found some input on another forum that made it sound like a pretty solid unit.

I assume the factory o2 sensors are narrow band right? It mentions you can run the a/f shut down switch off a narrow band sensor... do many people do this?

I'd like to have that extra level of protection on top of the WOT and RPM window switches, but I would prefer to not buy a whole wideband setup to install in the car.

yes the factory ones are narrow band PM spinmonster that guy knows his Nirtous and the corvette. as far as tapping into the stock o2 sensor. I know they aren't as good as the wideband but are they good enough I would like to say yes. but that is just a guess.
