Default controller wiring.

not sure if this is the best section to post this but just looking for a few opinions. want to make sure i wire everything in the best way.

im running a blow thru setup using the msd6010 and i just stumbled across this nifty guy http://www.dynotunenitrous.com/store...p?idproduct=67 its a a/f lean shut off. im going to be installing a ams500 boost controller at the same time. im trying to figure out the best way to wire it up in conjunction with the boost controller and msd to save my engine if something happens.

the lean shut off box has a positive and negative output that are used to control the shut off feature. they are both n/c inside the unit and when a lean situation occurs it will open both. killing the positive 12v or the ground source.

in regards to the msd i need to get 12v to the pink wire to activate the timing retard (opposite of what the actual control does)

and for the boost controller i think im just going to kill power going to it so it will just go to wastegate spring pressure about 5psi. but im also thinking about just killing the ignition, so it really can save the engine say if the fuel pump quits.??

opinions?......

i cant seem to figure out a way to allow the ams500 to have power all the time and only cut the power when there is a lean condition.

the dynotune box will only supply 12v or a ground AFTER it has gotten a signal from the WOT switch to the blue wire on the box. then it will cut it once there is a lean spot.

this is even seeming to be a problem to apply 12v to the msd once there is a lean spot
