Default anyone got a MSD 2step?

i was thinkin about gettin one of those 2step rev limiters. you can pretty much leave your foot on the gas and get good launches with em. it sounds cool, too! i would like some feedback on your experiences with the 2step. all you guys runnin boosted tegs, your feedback is needed if you have one of these! did it help you launch better? i figured the turbo would be spoolin like crazy and the power would be off the hook once you launched. the digital 6 ignition control that my friend is runnin with NOS seems to help him pretty damn good off the line.

if your serious about racing, you have to have a 2 step. perfect launches all the time. on a good day, i will have between a 1.69-1.75 60 ft all day long with a 2 step. its very consistent and its retard proof!!

is the 2step an add on to the MSD line of ignition boxes? I have the 6a and it has an extra wire sticking out right next to the tach signal wire, is that an extra outlet for accesories like this?

engine goes to the lower rpm limiter, Sorta like a Hondata setup.

Now for the next project, a Line lock installed on the clutch line.

Release button and your GONE!

Default kinda newbie question please don't laugh( 2step)

I'm running a digital6 in my B16a ef. I want to know the technique to using the digital6 at the track. When launching on the streets i release/ turn off the 2step once the car is moving. My car hooks up pretty decent on the streets with that technique. I tried using that technique at the track with slicks and my car just bogged? Can someone please explain thier techinique with the 2 step at the track. Thanks

guys with digital 6plus.....do you guys still need to buy those rpm modules to use your built in 2-step rev-limiter to set the rpms? or no need?

With guys with 6al and have acquired a seperate 2-step/3step rev limiters.........you guys still has to buy those rpm modules to activate the rev limiter,right?

Can someone help me with these inquiries?

thanks so much!
