Default Anyone use the CASPER Timing Commander to pull timing???

http://www.casperselectronics.com/st...roducts_id=701

Just seen this off another site and was wondering what everyone else thinks about it?
Good idea to pull timing? But you would always need to make sure you adjust it or make sure it is at the rigth setting before you spray.
Anyone use it or has used it?

I did a search and only came up with a little info.

Thanks everyone

The Casper Electronics Timing Commander is a version of the IAT resistor trick. This is a plug-and-play solution for those who are not comfortable modifying electrical circuits. You will also need tuning software such as HPTuners.

Thanks Gary Z!
thats what I figured and thought it might be easier then having to chage resistors when upping your nitrous shot.
Yeah HPTuners will be needed!!!

There is a small misunderstanding here - you wouldn't need to change the resistor. The IAT resistor selects some normally unused location (region) in the IAT spark correction table. The timing value at that location, not the resistor, changes as you up the shot size. The Casper unit does change the resistor but this is to provide extra flexibility and is not really necessary. The main advantage of the Casper unit is that you don't need to mess with wires, connectors, and relays.
