do you have your active above TPS value set properly? The throttle has to be pushed beyond that point to activate it. if i push my throttle partially it'll redline the **** out of it. gotta go wot or at least past that threshold

yea post all of your settings... maybe even a screenshot. As long as you are sending ground to the correct pin and your settings are correct it should work great. i love my launch control

No it works fine (spark+fuel cut and fuel cut). Its just when I have only spark cut, it hits the rev limit, and instead of popping like in the vid, it makes like a gurgleing noise and slowly revs up higher and higher past the rev limit still createing no boost. Should I have the timeing way retarted? advanced? should I have the hard cut lower (its at about 3300 rpm)?
the fuel cut at -10 degrees timeing makes around 4psi bounceing off the 3300 rpm limit.

-10° 10°
MS wants to know what timing to retard to, you put in -10°.
Telling MS -10° might cause it to 10° too soon, or somethign crazy.
10° = 10 degrees before top dead center. Due to the delay, this should ignite the spark right as the piston starts traveling downward. Who knows when -10° would ignite? when the piston wants the travel back up?
summary: you should simply insert the number 10 in the [ Retard to: (deg)] box.

Probably.
which is not good, considering 10° of timing would put the flame front around 15ATDC. 10ATDC would put the flame front very far after from the piston, combustion happens late, lack of compression and power output....probably not good

stock PNP settings are at "retard to (deg) -10*"
I've been using that value, but I'm not boosted.
Its probably still not good!
EDIT:
Hmm... looks like the stock 96/97 PNP has it set to 5*. I don't know how that got past me.

BTW im 99% sure the settings are 3/5 cuts, -10 degrees, soft cut at 3000 hard cut at 3300.

What I'd like to trade the fireball 2step for is a ultra fast limit.. This is what I was playing with to get pretty close to what you're wanting I guess:
That, will get you this:
The 1-2 Shift was off the 7000 limit, obviously.
Yeah Its still N/A. I'm close...
