MSD 2 Step

Anyone use one of these on an automatic? If so, what do you use to trigger the 2 step? I know manuals cars use the clutch, but cant think of anything on the automatic.

U can use a toggle switch to activate it,i have a manual and thats how im going to hook mine up.Pretty sure the switch just grounds the circuit.

yes , I used a toggle switch for when I wanted it to be activated & from the toggle switch to the brake switch on the brake peddle . used a test light to find the wire on the brake switch that was off when you let off the brake.

Mine is wired to my brake. I just hold one foot on the brake and put the gas pedal to the floor. No toggle switch.

Yes, Circle D 3b. I have my 2 step set at 3300 and cut 1.4's on 20's. You can hear it in this video right before I take off....

You dont have anything to switch it off for the burnout? Is that why your car makes that sound during it?

From what I'm reading, this will not work on a 16 due to wiring differences, can anyone confirm/deny?

That sound you are hearing is a leaf blower blowing off the burnout box, haha. I just use the factory line lock, no problems.

How do you do a burnout in 2nd gear at 6k if the limiter is set at 3200. In the video it sounds like you keep hitting the limiter?

No idea, I have my 2 step set at 3300rpm, and I use the factory line lock. I just activate my line lock, do a burnout, then mash both pedals to the floor and she cuts 1.40's on 20's. I am not hitting a rev limiter at all though, I feather the throttle during my burnout to avoid hitting the rev limit/redline. No activation/toggle switch either, 2 step is wired to my brake pedal

Using the stock line lock you take your foot off the brake once its activated. Therefore no 2 step. Only way it would work unless you had a second switch to disable it to do an old school gas/brake at same time burnout.

They will not work on any gt built after march of 16'. They changed the coil packs and the harness. I know this for a fact as I have the new style coil packs and the msd two step and they do not match. It is possible if you spliced on the old plugs and changed out coil packs but it would not be plug and play.
