I'm torn between these two ignition boxes. It's for the Trans Am in my sig. It will get a shot of nitrous down the road but currently doesn't have any nitrous. I really just need it for the 2-step for now. My main question is, can I get the 6AL-2 and add a timing retard **** later? What are the pros and cons of these boxes? Longetivity? Performance?

I have a 6al2. I use the 2 step for my t brake. And you can wire in a retard **** also. Digital comes with all that so gotta figure out which is cheaper

Does anyone run the mallory 685 anymore? That was what I was planning on going with

685 is a decent unit...I have been running a Digital 6 since around 2001.

I can't speak to the 6AL but I used the Digi6+ for years on my Z. And loved it. Throttle response was instantaneous. Timing retard and 2 step right on board... I just sold it a couple of weeks back because of the 24x.

You can't go wrong with that unit. Easy install to boot.

I've been running my 6AL since 1999, still working great no issues.

I have a Mallory 685, it's easy to program. I like it. I haven't connected the nitrous yet though but have the same plans. It has retard and rpm window switches.

under external fuse box

You tune for timing. Or get a retard box

i have the mallory box. simple to wire up. havent sprayed with it yet but the way to program it is super easy. i have it mounted between the back of my console and the back seat. in the trans tunnel. there is a bypass plug that is used so the opti doesnt go out from the extra power through. i have it mounted to where i can open up the console lid and unplug it and plug it in with out getting out the car.

What's the best retard box to buy if you already have a 6al-2 hooked up?

I ran a Dig 6 when I street drove the car, never had an issue with that one. Upgraded to a 7AL-3 but I would never street drive that one.
