The reason it is killing cats is because it's cutting spark, but fuel is still at WOT. So you're dumping unburned fuel directly into your exhaust.
Thanks for the explanation Joe (Tyler too). Pretty trick stuff

Mine is always activated when the clutch pedal is depressed and the RPMs are under 2500. If it's over 2500 RPM, the rev limiter won't kick in, so then the rev limiter in my computer takes over. That is set at 6500 RPM.

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?

It's a necessity for a mediocre driver like me. Too many things to concentrate on at the line. This takes away one of them. I don't have to try to hold a certain RPM. I depress the clutch and throttle pedal, wait for the light, and side-step the clutch.

Hm. Just edited. Either that or a 1969 Camaro SS. So beautiful.

I would kill to drive a r34 though...

I'm too new to drag racing, and my car is stock so really not too much of a point yet...

Wait I thought the MSD 2-step also hooks up to the injectors. So if your still dumping gas what is the point for that?

Nope, just your COPs. It cuts spark to limit the revs.

LOL I've been in a r33 and r34 they are nothing special. Then again they were both stock.
