Default what is your favorite way to pull timing?
I have a timing tuner but I am tempted to just reflash with hp tuners when I want to spray.

What about the msd timing twister can you see that the timing is pulled when data logging?

What way do you guys pull timing for juice?

i went with the interface because you can see when it pulls timing. good thing I did because I saw it was not pulling timing,

Blind faith = BOOM

What is "the interface" are you talking about the msd ?

Or are you talking about just using tuning software like hp tuners?

I have the Lingenfelter unit and it only pulls while activated. Easy to install too.

Reflash is not needed to spray. "Resistor Mod" pulls timing and adds fuel with IAT tables. You effectively have two switchable tunes.

Newbie question why not control fuel with the fuel jet instead of messing with the IAT tables?

you dont control the fuel with iat tables, it is used to pull timing, my belief is you get your motor dialed in the pull x amount of timing for nitrous and tune with nitrous via pills or fuel pressure if you have a standalone

The short answer is that a "dry" system has no fuel jet.

You can control both timing and fuel with IAT tables and many do. A dry nitrous system implemented this way has several advantages over a wet system.

EFI Live is my first choice then Lingenfelter box second. You can log and see both work with EFI Live.

I did the resistor trick, but I wired in an led to show me when timing is being pulled.
