Default MSD Digital window switch?

Should I get the MSD digital window switch or the regular unit that uses pills? I have also heard of some using the BMN unit. Is it a better unit. Easy to install?

The digital switch is cheaper and very cool. The pills for the other one are outrageous...

it'll be cheaper with the digital MSD over the other one with pills plus you don't have to worry about having pills. Don't know anything about the BMN unit.

BMN unit is nice, and it has a 1st gear lock out built in.

I suggest either the NEw digital MSD or The BMN.
THe BMN has a cool feature that most people like.It has an optional first gear lock out.This is great for streat applications that are traction limitied.It has turn dials that set the RPM activation and cut off.
We sell them for these prices.
MSD Digital-95.00
BMN Controller-129.00

Not any harder to wire at all. Just one extra wire that taps into the brake line. It is used to reset the first gear Lock-Out when you step on your brakes at the end of your run.

I was wondering why BMN used a brake wire. So anytime after the brakes are engaged, the system resets for 1st gear lockout? And it can tell its out of first how?

i still think the fjo/nx switch is by far the best two window switch's tps switch lock out for any sort of trigger type switch say a tranny brake first gear lock out something like that. plus it has a provision for their progressive switch also. very very nice piece i like mine alot

The unit can since its out of first gear by RPM Drop.As for the brake wire,Yes its so when you get on your brakes after the run it resets it.
