Hello all,
Got the ignition box in and it works excellent. Recently installed nitrous and am having a (hopefully) small issue. Went thru the directions twice regarding how to wire it in, maybe I just need a second set of eyes to verify this is correct. What is happening is, when I arm the system, the retard I believe turns on, even when I am at idle, and my car wants to shut down (According to the MSD instruction manual, it is not to activate unless above 2000 rpm). While wiring it up, I knew I had an old momentary button to take the hot signal to the solenoids, which would activate the retard as well (1 degree). I have since replaced it, but yet to install it.
I've included a wiring diagram how I've installed it, maybe another set of eyes will say... uh hey, do this and you're good to go. This is a whole new ball game for me so I do appreciate the help.
Many thanks, Dave

Evening everyone, went back and started from ground 1. Sure enough, I had a couple wires hooked up wrong, after taking everything out and starting from the beginning. Burned thru a lot of wire, but it helped seeing what I thought was "correct" which was not. Got it all done, fired up the car, armed the system and did not have any issues. Tomorrow will do a test hit to see how it does. I will admit, wiring and my brain do not mix at all... I wish it did; however, I have been taking notes and have been keep a book of everything I've done this year electrical-wise. Again, I thank those who have chimed in and look forward to having an excellent run tomorrow.
Thanks again, Dave
