Retard Timing for N2O
I recently installed a NOS fogger kit Direct Port on my GSR (fully built) I'm starting with the smallest shot it offers (85) and need to stage/retard timing....... later I'm going bigger about 100-120 shot
My question is whats the best way to go... I'm stuck ... MSD6A(if it can handle it or a better MSD) or is there another route. Cant decide yet so let me know your suggestions and reasoning behind it. Thanks everyone. Negative comments not wanted here but let em come.

Re: Retard Timing for NO2
As a general rule you want to pull 2 degrees of timing for every 50hp of nitrous. The MSD digital six is really the box to have because it allows for timing advance off the bottle and retarded timing when on the spray. When you power up the nitrous the timing is then backed off. The digital six is really a miracle in a box and I'm sure you will also have fun with the 2 step rev limiter! Also, If you are going to run the 100 shot I would go to a spark plug 1 heat range colder.
