So the problem was with the DIS 4 MSD box. Not the waste spark configuration. Problems with a MSD box. Why does that not surprise me. I'm having problems with a delay box I just installed. You guessed it. MSD. You know, there are W/S systems that have built-in rev limiting. The ECM I use has a fully configurable rev control, primary and auxiliary with an optional 3 step soft-rev control. I personally don't use it because I don't feel comfortable dropping cylinders with alcohol and nitrous, but I've heard from others it works very well.

Oh. And Dusty, some Domestics do use transbrakes and nitrous.

Yes speeder, doing 6 coils with the TEC3r is a well known and documented option, but up to this point I see no need. At one point in my tuning of the engine I purposely ran my engine excessively rich to try and find the rich limit with alcohol and this engine. Even when I did find the limit, it didn't miss a beat. Power dropped slightly and the engine was lazy, but absolutely no missing. If that's not a testimonial to the waste spark system, I don't know what is. Maybe nitro?
