I'm looking for a MSD Box so that I can retard my timing when I want to run the nitrous and when I don't I can drive around with normal timing. Any recommendations? I was riding around at like 8-10 degrees last summer and the car felt sluggish without nitrous and I'm sick of it. I found the MSD Digital-6 Plus Ignition Control with one stage retard and other features and was wondering if anyone had any experience with it or would reccommend something else? Thanks.

I used a 6AL box with the timing retard controller. It was a $120 add-on control. Worked pretty good. You could change the timing 10 degrees while driving.

This is the one you want. You tie in the NOS trigger wire to the unit and it will automatically retard the timing to a preset value. No juice, no retard. Give 'er the laffy gas, get the retard you need.

Currently I am running the stock ignition and coil. Is that alright with the MSD box suggested because I was just looking to buy one thing and be done with it?

I ran the digital6+ box for the n2o before I bought the tweecer. It worked great and was used with the stock coil, dizzy, with a msd cap and rotor with some FMS wires for a tune up.

I would get the plug-in wire kit. It is color coded for the connections and you just plug your factory coil plug into one end and the other end into the coil...if you ever need to remove or test the box to eliminate an issue its a quick and easy fix.
