What nitrous controllers are you guys running? Alright I'm starting to buy part for my 5.3 nitrous build. Its going in a 1999 chevy silverado RCSB. The truck was v6 so I plan on swapping in the 5.3 and using an MSd lsx ignition controller, with a victor jr or sr intake and a Holley carb. I'm going to run direct port nitrous injection. I plan on a 175-200 progressive shot. My question is what ignition retard box, rpm/window switches, and nitrous step controller will all work together. I've looked and most of the three step boxes I find say they won't work with multi coil ignition systems. Any help is appreciated
I run the MSD 6010 box for my carbed nitrous LS motor and it works fine. It has a hookup specifically for retard activation. MSD actually came out with the new 6014 box that has a few more features. As for progressive I run a Nitrous Express Maximizer 4 and it has worked flawlessly. They recently came out with the maximizer 5 controller that looks good. Nitrous Outlet is releasing a new one as well

We have the MSD 6012. And just like what Baronsmith98 said. All the MSD boxes have a built in 2 step and retard for timing. We also run the Max 4. But if you haven't got a box yet. I would get the 6014. Lots of features like data logging and individual cylinder timing, and an output for external data logging as well. The max 5 has this as well. So you can tie everything into a Racepack or some other data logging setup, besides the internal memory they have. We also have the Fast dual sensor AFR meter to round it off. It has an internal data logger as well.
def on the 6014 box, we switch from the 6012 and the Daytona box. The new box is amazing once you start to dig into it.
I've been thinking on just getting the NOS mini, looks easy and simple, small too to hide.

Hell, if you have direct port, you can get pretty stupid on tune up. With the 6014, pill a extra degree on the hot cylinder and jet the fuel side up a couple sizes, and you know you are covered on that cylinder.
