The Progressive Nitrous Mini-Controller is designed to be installed almost anywhere on the vehicle.
Select a location that is away from heat sources that can damage the wires. Before permanently
installing the device, we recommend that you complete the installation procedure below, as you will
need access to the potentiometer and have a clear view of the LEDs for the final steps. Using the
wiring diagram applicable to your application, connect the harness as illustrated.

Power Input
should be connected to the arming switch and fused for 5 amps

Controller Ground should be connected to chassis ground as close as possible to the battery.

TACH input is designed to work with most Tachometer signals (down to 3 Volts), without the need for
a separate adapter. It can be connected to a tach signal, coil trigger signal, or fuel injector. DO NOT
connect it to a high voltage wire.

Input #1 is designed to work with most throttle-position-sensors (TPS) and wide-open-throttle (WOT)
switches. Connect it directly to the signal wire from your TPS.

Note: For drive-by-wire it is recommended that you use the falling TPS signal

Input #2 can be used with either a 12-volt or ground signal to activate it. (see Input #2 in the software
section) Example: use this input as a secondary arm switch for applications that use a trans-brake.

MAP Sensor Tube should be connected to your intake manifold.

The mini-controller will not turn on until the following steps are completed successfully:

1) Disconnect the solenoids from the relays to prevent them from firing.
2) Arm the Progressive Nitrous Mini-Controller.
3) With the throttle in the idle position, press and hold the TPS learn button until the RED,

YELLOW and GREEN LEDs begin to flash. DO NOT change the throttle position until the
GREEN LED stops flashing and goes out. If the GREEN LED begins to flash quickly, you
have a bad TPS signal.
