MSD Digital 6 Ignition

Is anyone running the MSD Digital 6 ignition? I am getting mine today, and had a few questions as far as the rev limiters..I heard you can use one for launch control? How does that work?

Those really only help if you are running power adders.

I'm running it. It works great and is easy to hook up. Good for n2o. Theres a two stage rev limit, so you can theoretically use it for launch control, but I've never done it.

the only thing I could think of would be keeping it a constant rpm before you drop the clutch, and then immediately switching it off. Keep tire boiling to a minimum?

If you are going to go N20 I would go Nitrous Express or TNT or something Zex is geared more for the imports.

The solenoids for the Zex kit are only good up to 180-185hp. If you plan on going higher, then don't get the zex. I run zex, but i'm only sprayin 150.
