This Power Grid module retards ignition timing in relation to boost pressure using a built-in 3-Bar sensor. It also includes an output wire that can activate another device based on boost pressure, plus an overboost shut-down feature that kills the ignition if boost exceeds the target.
Specifications:
- Part Type: Ignition Performance Module
- Sub Category: Control Modules
- Part Number: 7762
Timing curves are programmed in MSD View software based on the module's built-in 3-Bar sensor.
Compliance: This part is legal for sale and use on Racing Use Only Vehicles — competition vehicles that are not registered and never operated on the street. It is against the law to install this part on an Emissions Controlled Vehicle (1966-and-newer California-certified or 1968-and-newer federally certified vehicles).
FAQ
What does the Boost Retard Module (PN 7762) do?
It retards ignition timing in relation to boost pressure and can activate another device or shut down the ignition if boost exceeds a set overboost target.
How is the timing map programmed?
Using MSD View software, based on readings from the module's built-in 3-Bar sensor.
Does this module have a safety feature?
Yes, it includes an overboost shut-down feature that will shut the ignition off if boost exceeds the overboost target.
Is this part legal for street use?
No. It carries MSD Emission Code 4 and is legal for Racing Use Only vehicles, not street-driven emissions-controlled vehicles.
