    Msd Btm?

    i have an lx and i dont plan to change it to FI or adding a turbo but i do plan to add nitrous in a year or so. my question is, does the BTM have a rev limiter and can i hook one up to my distributor? thanks

    A plain MSD BTM does nothing but reduce timing based on boost. (Boost Timing Master). It won't help with Nitrous. An MSD 6BTM is an MSD 6AL plus BTM. It boosts spark, has a rev limiter and reduces timing based on boost. Still not what you want for nitrous. You want an MSD 6AL and an MSD 8982 Timing Retard.

    yea the 6al is the way to go, and if you want to save space try putting it in the glove box or in the wiper arm cover. I have all my N2O stuff hidden in there, sleeper style.
    I'm your local R&D nut. Fabracting, welding, tuning and breaking my stuff so you don't have to.
