A J&S safeguard is one alternative.

Oh yeh the Splitsecond box will also work.
It is shipped with the Vortech kits.

However; the nice part of J&S is that it monitors the knock snesor and can optionally retard individual cylinders.

for you.... J&S IS the way to go...hands down. Knock-retard, boost based (0-2.0 degrees per psi and everythign in between), RPM-based retard (0-8 degrees, from 5250rpm - comes in smoothly). It's a great product and works very well...

J&S Safeguard is a sound choice.

I also have a Procharger kit to install... Currently, I'm using a TechnoSquare reflash. If I went with the J&S, would I still need TS to return my timing curve to stock?
