2 step for ls motor
I got msd one. It was as said very easy install, I have mine off my brake switch. I have not put a master on off on it yet but may. I have not really had time to see how it works at building boost as just got it installed then put car away.
The msd is very simple ,the lingenfelter ones have more features like ability to retard timing with nitrous and to retard timing under boost. Not famiiar with the synergy one.

if so it brings a whole new meaning to brake boost. lol
Basically when I want to use it off the line I simply keep foot on brake and then rev up .When driving around and just hit brakes normally and not giving it gas it seems to have no effect. When use the line lock I pump brakes and then remove foot off brake of course and just use gas and it has no effect.
I have not tried to see what happens when try to break boost the car when driving around. But if was say going 3000 rpm on highway and then tried it not sure what would happen?? This is about only time you would hit brake at same time as gas. I set it to 3000 I think for now. It does of course come turn off when you take foot off the brake. It if turned out to not work great on street like its hooked up now then will put a master on it and just use it at track or for launch only off track 1/4 mile type runs.
I have the synergy all in one unit. I agree it does have some wiring but I think it does have a faster stutter than the others. The wiring isn't hard by any means just time consuming. I know I love mine, It got me 3 tenths in the 1/4. I went 10.90's to 10.60's with just the box... went from leaving at no boost to leaving at 5lbs on the foot brake....
I was wondering a bit about connecting it that way Big Bird at first.

Yes with a manual you hook it up usually to clutch switch.But then not sure what effect it would have when powershifting.
In my talons its done with software and it knows how fast you are going.

MSD 8733 wired into my trans brake button. 10 minutes or less total install time and works like a charm.
I had a Lingenfelter unit that popped and backfired really bad. The MSD is smooth and really fast (no back fires). No need to run the diode with the MSD unit either. I hear the Synergy units are top notch as well.

okay so to wire one up for a 90% street car would it be better to have a switch (a switch like in terms of a light switch) to turn on for it to be "on" or how would you wire it so it would be switched with the brake and the switch to have it only used for the track?
If you have a transbrake just run the blue/white wire to the wire running to the transbrake. It gets activated when you're holding the TB button. Endless possibilities when wiring, really.
I run msd 2 step. It is still useful to build boost and launch consistently even with no transbrake.Not into track racing that much with my car to get a transbrake.
My race talon uses two step as well and no transbrake. Fact they don't make a transbrake for the talon trannies yet guys still run great times without them.

I just hooked it up a few days before put my car away for winter so have not really had time to play with it much. I just messed a bit with it on street but forget where it was set to..2000 or 2500 maybe.Didn't have my eboost2 hooked up till day or so later so never even checked to see how much boost was building. Also upgrading my brakes so that might help me stall up a bit higher before it pushes thru the brakes.
Sure it will work good as two step works great in my auto talon can easily build 15psi on the current stock turbo and stock stall.
I should have my car on the road for some testing by april 1st hopefully depending on weather but might be awhile till roads get warm enough to let me run some practice runs with my little in car timers. Figure will have to practice off track since no rollbar and main track is very strict NHRA rules. Hoping to get my best times at non NHRA tracks.
