thats a pretty cool system. Ive never used one on an RX7, but ive used one on my TSI and it worked great. it was utter HELL on the trans though with the flat shifting LOL. Im not sure how an RX7 trans would hold up...

MSD has one in their high end box. My friend used to run it in his VR-4... except the box shitted out on him. we pulled it apart and it had hot glue in it... obviously MSD was selling a reman as a brand new box.

*bee-r makes an ignition cut box, but i think its more for showing off than actually spooling a turbo. you're best bet for a 2-step is going with a haltech that has it built in.
It may be hell on the trans, but its also hell on your tubo too as you are basicly using explosions in the exhaust manifold to keep it spooled.

Ah, didn't think about the trailing. It would need some kind of relay to cut trailing when leading was cut.

Thats an SCI (MSD brand) box and two step.

Apparently it's doable
