Ken Bjones says he has seen problems with both the MSD and the WOT.

Thanks for the link. Going to try and get the WOT box installed this week before work and see how it goes. Hopefully wont have any misfire issues.

Well finished install on mine thia afternoon. I got a new tune drom my tuner with job1 misfire codes and was told not to use no lift shift feature, as it is prone to cause a cel

 

[chuck@evoperform]

Who did the tune?

If you are using an SCT tuner, you can use the neutral rev limiter that is built in as a 2 step type device. It uses a fuel cut, so it is a bit more violent, but it does work better than holding the throttle manually. I set mine for between 4500-5000 rpm and it works well enough. I will track test it this weekend.

That doesn't help if you have an auto.

True, but why do you need this on an auto?

I tried one, using the brake light switch to trigger it, was nice to have a 2 step on the starting line. Trouble was when this thing was wired into the car it wouldn't turn more than 7300 RPMs, so off it came.

Because I don't leave at idle.

Hmmm, look at kdanner's post, 2 above this one...

I can footbrake my car to 3500ish, the converter is pretty loose.



I was still fighting a bad 1-2 shift, but the car went 1.59 in the 60 on that run.

What does it do on the 1-2 shift?

It felt like someone knocked the shifter into N. But it only happened on drag tires on a sticky track. There is tire spin on the street on the 1-2. I am attributing that to a bad solenoid. I replaced them per TSB 11-11-11.

Hopefully that will solve my pressure problem.
