I'm lost at what this actually does. I just read the description: shift light activation, adjustable aerodynamics based on speed? I'm just curious at what the advantages you can gain from all of this?

Like it says, it's a frequency switch. It switches an on-board relay based on a changing frequency. It can be used to operate a shift light based on rpm, or anything else you can think of. It's uses are limited only by your imagination.

It'd be no more difficult to install (exactly the same connections) but you have to assemble it yourself, so it's not for everyone. Way better than MSD though...

I would suggest using the MSD switch and wiring a potentiometer where the pill goes. That's how I did my electronic 6pi and it works perfectly, and it's fully adjustable.

It's basically just a variable resistor, you can get one for about three bucks at Radio Shack.
This is how I did mine, there's links for the stuff I used:

Yeah, the guy always sells them and I think the only people that buy them use them for rotary 6PI 
. It's perfect because it's got an easy to use 2-pin connector that spade terminals fir perfect, it puts out just enough air to open the ports, and it has an internal relief valve incase the pressure gets too high. Good luck with it, be sure to post how it turned out.
