MSD 6 BTM worth it? ---

[alwayscode390]

Should I go with this box from MSD, the 6btm since it is made for boosted vehicles with a built in boost/timing retard (http://store.summitracing.com/partd...400122+4294839065+4294925127+115&autoview=sku ) , would it benefit me much?! I use a Mallory 6al on my supercharged 67' ,and a Mallory CD with a window switch on my 96z with a bottle. THANKS ---

No,

The timing map in the chip pulls timing as boost goes up.

No need for it.

I have one on my Ty - jury's still out. Gives me one more handle to complicate things.

I would just run a regular old 6A, no reason for even a 6AL due to the fact that your chip control's the Rev limit also.

I have a 6a on mine. Can't say I notice any performance difference. I pick up slight radio noise from it, and it seems to go through plugs even faster. Save your money for alky or a tranny!
