I took out my plugs to clean them today, I looked down and my rear trailing wire was just hanging there. I'm sure that can't be good

I removed the plugs, the front plugs were nice and tan, the rear plugs were black.

Nice run!! Now you gotta keep the car. How exaclty does the 2 step system work? I know it works in conjuction with a line lock but do you just push a button that retards ignition to build boost at the tree, then dump the clutch and go?

The AMS-1000 is the secret the top teams are using and now it is available to you!
NLR is the leader in forced induction technology. The latest development is this controller. This controller does what others wish they could do. This unit will out perform ANY controller on the market! This unit can also be purchased to upgrade a current MSBC-1 set up. Take advantage of the latest technology from NLR! The quickest and fastest bikes, cars, snowmobiles and boats in the world use BOOST CONTROL FROM NLR. Think about it....engineered and designed to control boost on 600hp street tire(6 inch contact patch), no wheelie bar bikes that run mid 7's @200+mph in the 1/4 mile. Imagine what it can do for you !
