Step 2 5 78 FOXMustangMagazine.com 5: If you’re running the #4FA218-040L and higher supercharger kits, MSD’s 6-BTM (Boost Timing Master) is a must to protect your engine from detonation damage. The one thing you do not want at wide-open throttle and high boost is a misfire. The MSD 6-BTM is a multispark capacitive discharge ignition control system designed to keep the fires lit at high rpm. It retards ignition timing 1-3 degrees per each pound of boost to a maximum of 15 pounds and is engineered to function up to 15,000 rpm. The MSD 6-BTM effectively eliminates detonation (spark knock or pinging) because you can manually dial down ignition timing from your driver’s seat. There’s also a rev-limiter.
