Default 2 step limiter

I want to get a 2 step launch control for my fox. I do not have an ignition box. I only have a Accel 800+ coil. Is there anything I could buy without having to get a ignition box? If anyone has info or links for me to check out please let me know. My stang needs a leash on the line so I can be a little bit more consistant. The car is a manual and my mods are in my sig. Thanks

to use a msd 2 step you need a msd6al, the 2 step plugs in place of the rpm "pill".
but it just uses a 12 volt source to switch from the low rpm to the high rpm.

Thanks a lot everyone. I will start looking for places to purchase this ignition set-up. Maybe I'll get a new coil to replace my accel so everything matches. I'll keep you all posted.

Before you get all crazy with those combos...Just get yourself an MSD Digital 6+. It's got the 2 step built in, as well as timing retards for N20. It's the best bang for the buck.

MSD Digital 6+; How hard is it to wire up? Does it plug into any factory harnesses? I'll try and look up some more info about it.
