The only way I know how to tune is to collect data with Dyno Jet Autotune and apply sugested fuel adjustments to a PC5 map. You could tune for nitrous without a horendous amount of manual adjustments if you will only be using nitrous at WOT between say 6000 and 11,000 rpm. Still, it would be an awful lot of runs before you ever got it right guessing how much fuel to add. I'm not sure how you were planning to use the controller to work your way up but I was told the way to tune nitrous is to start with a small jet and get all the 100% throttle cells you need to tune for nitrous correct before moving up to a larger jet and then go through the process again and probably at least one more time if you're going with the maximum shot of nitrous on a (I will assume) stock engine. I believe a 60 shot is as big a dose as is prudent on a stock motor. Sounds like a lot of trial and error if that's what you were planning to do while relying only on guesswork and manual adjustments. You might be able to use the Daytona to collect data from an O2 sensor but I do not know how many samples/second the Daytona controller is capable of recording nor how many seconds of data it will hold. Probably enough but I know the PC5 and Autotune would work and you let the electronics do the guesswork and the apply the changes to the fuel table. They are a lot quicker than you or me although even they require a few runs to get it perfect.
I believe
@Dennis was using an extermely fast and effective setup for AFR tuning. I don't recall what it was called or how much it costs. If it's anywhere near being in the DJ ballpark as far as cost goes, I'd try it. The DJ stuff works if you use it properly (and properly isn't the way DJ tells you to do it) and it is affordable.
Find out if a progressive controller is really necessary. I thought they were primarily used for ramping up/down the nitrous as rpm increases. When I got my NC-2, I wasn't sure I would need it but it was a cool toy and it was capable of collecting at least a couple channels of data. The DJ system is capable of collecting A LOT of data including AFR if you have Autotune.
