Hmmm Sounds like fun!

Looks like the old "2 step" to me...basically it keeps your RRM's at a certain range (ie 2500 RRM's - or whatever) at the launch...It would be good if you did A LOT of Drag racing!!!

i have it.

Yes I run it, decent check my user name under my post. I posted a few videos of me coming off the 2 step...pretty nasty

E if you have a sct handheld it might have a 2 step in it.mine X3 does.

best part about 2 steps is the sound and flames

That is fuel not spark cut off. I like the MSD better, depress the clutch all the way it comes on, floor it, dump clutch hang on...

I'm planning on installing the MSD 2-step on my clutch safety switch(the thing that senses if your clutch is down when first starting the car) whenever I get around to buying it. I've read its also a major help in shifting/powershifting because pushing the clutch down will activate the 2-step and remove torqueload off the drive train allowing the shifter to go through the gates quicker. For powershifting, it disallows your engine from overrevving because it cuts the spark from the engine. Is this correct?

It really does not help with shifting, the WOT box would be better. The MSD is really to just help getting our over weight IRS cars off the tree. However make sure you have some rear end mods and run a few psi lower on air pressure so the tire takes the bulk of the hit, or youw ill need a shovel for rear parts and axles. It hits pretty hard, I leave at about 4800rpm it feels like being hit in the back with a sledge hammer.

Thanks for the info... and oh trust me, I'm not planning on pushing any more power or launching my car even at 1000rpm with my current rear end... gm 7.5" 10 bolt ftml. Next major mod is a whole new rear end(looking at the dana 60 atm) and then gonna get my t56 rebuild... then I'll be ready for the major power mods
