Default To MSD or not to MSD that is the question

Hey guys I need some help here. First of my car is a 01 WS6 M6 it puts about 400 to the wheels.

I am probably going to put a NOS on it. I currently do not have a after market tach, but have been considering one with a shift light, or maybe just a light with a 2 stage rev limiter?

I would like a 2 stage rev limiter but I will also need someting that retards timing when I shoot it.

1 Does MSD make something for our cars that will do what I am looking for?

2 Is any one here currently running this setup?

3 Any other ideas on how I can do this?

4 Any other inf you guys can give me would be great.

I did see that but I'm really more instrested in a 2 stage rev limiter. If I can do the timing retard it's a plus. I'm not 100% sure I'm gonna spray it yet.

I'm sure I want a 2 step.

If you want a two-step, you only have one choice. Fortunately, it's an awesome unit and works great! Harlan's two-step

One of our sponsors, Ramchargers, makes an adjustable timing module.

MSD does not make one for the LS1 at this time.
