Default Does this turbo setup need BTM?? help!

Drag turbo with BOV pipe and everything
t3/to4B
7psi turbonetic Wastegate
high press pump
370cc injector
Apexi VAFC

I'm currently running 3psi only, but i'm going to tune the car next week. Just wondering Do I need a MSD 6A ignition thing?...because i'm planning running 7-8psi and dont know if I need any ignition timing in those kind of boost level....

Or I can just change distributor direction so spark come in advance...Other than go out and spend hundreds of dollars on the 6A ignition...

Please help...Apreciated

just curious, how are you running 3psi of boost when ur wastegate is set at 7psi. also, get rid of hte deltagate and get a tial, deltagate will spike like crazy and Fu*k your motor up. i learned

I'm also wondering how you are running 3psi, sounds like a fubar'd wastegate or a boost leak. The 6A will do nothing to change your ignition timing. The BTM or 6BTM will retard timing with boost. It would be most wise to get the 6btm (or a rom for your ecu) to retard timing. ALSO, you will most likely get a CEL (check engine light) if you are getting sufficient fuel with the 370's and the VAFC because it will not be trimming out enough of the MAP voltage. If you don't understand this, search.

i would recommend a btm and larger injectors. your boost will be limited to 6-8psi max because you will not be able to correct the map as much with those injectors. also a btm will be a good way to run a better timing at lower or out of boost and also give you the ability to reduce timing if you get bad gas, etc.
