Default Need some help with progressive control and msd timing retard

So I got a nos brand progressive controller part #15835B and I am running a nos cheater kit on a 5.3LS with an msd 6ls for ignition. Now I have two questions the first is on the instructions for the progressive controller it says to connect one wire from the SW port on the controller to one prong on the wot switch. It then says to connect the other prong of the wot switch to ground. My wot says nc, no, and com. I'm unsure of which wires go to which part of the wot switch. Second question is on the progressive control it looks like it pulses the ground for activation so how do I go about hooking up the msd wire for timing retard because it has to see +12v to retard timing. Be gentle I'm new to the nitrous game lol. Thanks in advance

Good. You could use something like this very easily by picking up a 5 pin relay if you don't already have one. Then wire the timing retard signal into the power wire going from one relay to the next. So that that wire doesn't get power until you let off the transbrake. (Assuming that you have a transbrake.) Basically you just need to set it up so that wire doesn't get power until you let off the transbrake, or until the nitrous system is activated. It looks like on that controller they are activating it with a ground instead of a power.

I used another relay to switch the ground trigger to positive trigger for the 6LS box.
