Why no turbo blanket? They make titanium ones just like your exhaust wrap now. Contain alllll the exhaust heat

I want to figure this out for a v-twin briggs... Just to cut the spark (ground the 2 coils) at a certain rpm.

[@Y2daT420]

@@fishgaming8599 to cut spark on a mower the small black wire going to each coil gets grounded.. .. for a signal to tell the tach your rpm you may have to mount a small transformer or other small elecrtronics coil next to the flywheel so it gets a electrical pulse each time the magnet in the flywheel passes by. ( depending on the size of the coil vs how close it is it may be to strong ?? A automotive crank position sensor may work placed by the starter teeth on the flywheel if 1 tooth is removed ?

[@fuhkoffandie]

I used to take my tachometer apart and making shift light right in the tach. You can actually do the same thing with it

[@hedgepethracing9590]

Car is in progress. Well done man. I got a old shift light, gonna try n rig something up. I'm cheep..

[@bertvisser6423]

Thinking outside the box,the only way to go in life! Would love to see a video where you explain how a 4l60e or 4l80e has a launch button,where you at the light tree holding down the button and when you release the button the trans grabs and launches the car :)

[@TIMEtoRIDE900]

That takes a valve body programmed to "hold" 2 bands, then release a band. You have to buy the hardware.

[@tarmiziebinherman7138]

Hello. I would like to ask. Do you use straight pipe? For this to happens? Because I installed mine and theres to fire while I rev the engine. The pop bang didnt sound good either. The only thing I do to my exhaust is, i installed HkS muffler and removed the cat at the middle, still theres 2 more bullet on my exhaust system, 2 bullet that are already installed by the manufacturers.

[@Beng177]

Could the same be achieved with an N Channel FET instead of relays, relays are kinda bulky and expensive compared to a FET.

[@Calvin-Nelson]

Sure it could

[@613Builds]

very cool. good stuff. thumbs up

[@salvatorehayes2753]

Very Cool. I Didn't Realize How Well Just Hitting RPM Point And Letting The Shift Light Go Off And On Would Work That Well. I Figured You Would Need To Delay The Light And Keep It On For A Few MilSeconds. But It Naturally Hitting Set Point And Falling Back Down From Now Ignition Seems To Work. I Plan On Using My 2nd Stage Nitrous Output To Intercept The Coils Just Like You Did. I Have A Hemi So All Injectors And Coils Get Constant 12v Key On And Their Grounds Are Controlled By PCM. I'll Just Snip All The Powers Of The Coils And Join Them At One Relay That Will Be Controlled By The Nitrous Controller Based On RPM. I Might Play Around With Time Delay Off So I Can Really Build Up Fuel For Bangs haha. I Just Want A Fireball Out My Turbo Hood Edit hahahaha.

[@olfatal4345]

After the time and money buying the stuff to make one it’s way easier to order the msd 2 step... and they come with a lifetime warranty 🤷‍♂️

[@thekinghash]

[@svtbird9613]

Would it be possible to run something like this on a waste-spark coil pack ignition system? I have a 90 Tbird SC with an Explorer 5.0 swap, using the 96 explorer computer. Hoping I dont have to get an aftermarket EEC.

[@Calvin-Nelson]

It's possible. All you are really doing is cutting the command to the coil off based on the tach signal.

[@jezwilliams3162]

Nice work bud. Interested to know how you designed the circuit

[@jezwilliams3162]

I love the idea of using the transistors. Altho my understanding is the transistor will amplify the input signal. Altho the input "fire" signal for the coil isn't an AC waveform is it, it's just a DC pulse? So your input for the fets is +vdc coming from your shift light, once it hits it's "flash" rpm, it will kill the main +vdc to the fets. My concern is the flash signal from the shift light will be a pulse signal I.E the led flashes for shift instead of staying solid "on" . Great project & has me thinking

@@johnboy9769 yeah. You might be able to make that work. You would lose the shift light capability.

[@carstenreinbold5523]

In your opinion, would it be suitable to run a turbo in a stock 4200 that was built brand new? Using a lower psi or would a higher be okay? I know the 4200 has a lower compression ratio. I know there are a few variables as well

[@Calvin-Nelson]

My 4200 is completely stock other than valve springs. I've run as high as 17 psi. I think the key is using ethanol. It helps the engine live in my opinion. Also keeping the timing out of the mid range helps the rods live.

[@carstenreinbold5523]

Nivlac57 and as far as that goes, that’s tuning and the type of gas you use?

[@carstenreinbold5523]

What do you mean by keeping the timing out of the mid range?

[@Calvin-Nelson]

@@carstenreinbold5523 So you would run more conservative timing around 2000-4500 RPM, and then roll it in above 4500. I am running an flex fuel. It is about 70% ethanol, and 30% gas. You can buy it right from Sheetz.

@@Calvin-Nelson Thanks. I Ordered a "replica" that states it's low level. now on the wire coming from the shift light, where does that connect to short the board? iv'e ordered everything just wondering how to run that part to ground out the board. Is it the ground pin on the 9 pin connection? Sorry for the hassle but your the only person who's apparently done a DIY ls 2 step but i can't see the wiring in the video fully lol.

[@lP_PROXY]

Is a spark plug safer than a tune for flames?

[@Calvin-Nelson]

Hm. Hard to say. A spark plug won't spool the turboo.

[@jregamey]

Can you pm with details? I got a POS v,6 Camry I wanna mess with. I understand shift light. But that relay board?

[@Calvin-Nelson]

Basically all the relay board is doing is disconnecting the signal from the ECU that commands the coils to charge. It's like you took all the plugs to your coils and unplugged them simultaneously, but only above a certain RPM.

[@jregamey]

So having a switch to ground coils to chassis wouldn't be the same thing? This board brings power to the coils and with shift light disconnects the relays everytime it lights up. Shift light being the signal wire for relays. Still looking for a relay that looks similar. Most I'm coming across are for LEDs and 5v.

Like I said in the video, it will work with any coil on plug setup. You just need a shift light that's reads accurate rpm for your engine.

Lots of people have gotten good use out of it.

Yes of course just shove some random electrical components into the dizzy cap & hey presto you'll have your spark interrupted. 🤣

[@chrisdinkha8275]

Do you think I will be able to run the MSD to step on the 4200 with the LS coil swap I just basically leave two of the wires unplug

[@Calvin-Nelson]

You might be able to. The problem is the RPM value that you set on the MSD will not be accurate.

[@eliepting648]

In theory wouldn't this setup work for a Honda dizzy? Instead of having a full board you can use a single relay system. Anyone else tried on a dizzy?

[@Calvin-Nelson]

It should. Never tried it though

That is why I own a vehicle with a manual transmission. All automatics are known to have a rev limiter built in the ECM. The ones with a manual don't. I know when to keep the revs in my motor so I don't break it.
