Default Auto timing retard on the Spray?

Well back years ago I used an MSD 6AL w/ a digital multi retard for pulling timing while on the spray but let me have full timing while on the motor the rest of the time.

So, does anything like this exist for the LS1 nitrous kits?

Thanks!

I used one to get my HP #s and it works like a charm...Its currently at Ramchargers getting a new upgrade. They are going to make the integral window switch more programmable on the shutoff RPM. Excellent product....and in reality...the ONLY product for LS1s.

Sounds exactly what I am looking for. Do you know if this will work with multistage setups also?

well..you can set your timing while off the juice and then there is one stage retard for while spraying. Its easy enough to get to and change...i guess you could just set your normal timing down a few degrees on a nitrous run and then use the regular nitrous retard function for the second stage. Thats what I did. But there isnt specifically a two stage timing functon....just one.

Well heck if I do run a two stage (75 dry, 125 wet), couldn't I just pull all the timing needed for both stages with the single retard function.

Like if each stage needed 3* retarded, I could pull 6* total(all at once) with the controller?

Any idea if they can take the old design and upgrade it for a few bucks for us?

My mods are K&N FIPK (power robber), Hooker longtubes, ORY, TP4400, Moser 12-bolt w/ 4.30's, MAFT, Ramchargers timing tuner, RT catback w/ cutout or bullets straight off the headers (depends on my mood), NOS 5177 tweaked a little, NOS wet kit w/ independant fuel system, T-Rex inline fuel pump, HPP3, Pro Stars w/ 30" Hoosiers, and I think that's about it. There maybe some other little things I'm forgetting.
