Nice, but I wanted something I'd notice. See around 0:10 for example:

all you need is the light...something like this: http://www.raptorperformance.com/Ord...der%20Form.htm or this http://www.jegs.com/p/Auto-Meter/Aut...45851/10002/-1
I bought the brightest LEDs I could source on digikey in the 30 seconds i spent looking. but they seemed to light up bright enough to notice.

So if I'm reading this right, in order to hook up an LED as a single stage shift light on a MSPNP, I need to solder a jumper from U1 pin 10 (JS7/Spark F), to one of the 8 unused header pads? I assume I'd also need the driver transistor and resistor as shown in the Shift Light section of the MS Extra Hardware Manual. Are there spares, or a proto area on the MSPNP?
Thanks,

FYI, my car wouldn't start with that wire connected. I never did any form of troubleshooting, just clipped the wire and ran it without a tach for 6 months. Didn't really miss it - one less gauge to watch. I had a 7400rpm rev limiter and I used it.

MSPNP Output 1 as boost control
Something like that, I dont have my current MSQ here.
- Basic settings > Codebase and output function > X4 (JS2) -> Output 1 (not Boost Control)
- More settings > Outputs > OUTPUT 1 (X4/JS2) source -> RPM
- More settings > Outputs > OUTPUT 1 (X4/JS2) on/off limit -> 69
- Hook up 12V LED (low current!!) shift light
- Profit
