    Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works perfect with my NOs Nice unit. Set to back out 6 degrees of timing when hitting the nitrous. Verified the re+ard worked before hooking up nitrous. Checked with a timing light and it backed out exactly 6 degrees of timing when activated. I do not need or use the start re+ard. Ridiculous the profanity blocker comes up when you spell "re+ard" when that verbiage is on the product!
