Yes it is. It's been around for a while. Not many people in this platform know about it.


MHd has been working on a lot of features for a long time.. we've seen maybe 20% of them

Bluetooth adapter for example...


I sure as hell won't wait

It has been noted elsewhere that this device cuts power to the coils and may case misfires and other serious issues (read: engine failure).

Yeah, I'm sure that was the reason.

To quote someone on another forum discussing the same piece of hardware:

I certainly wouldn't say works perfectly. As I said earlier anything that cuts (or interrupts) the primary charge will fire that coil early.

To give you an example, the factory coils charge about 2.5ms. An engine running at 7k rpms rotates 42 deg every ms. If you interrupted that coil charge a ms early you advance that cylinder by 42 degrees. That's enough to cause pre ignition type damage, and certainly detonation even with good fuel. With this platform moving to move powerful coils with longer charge times the effects will be even more pronounced.

The 2 step has a little less effect because of less loads and lower rpm but the same thing is still happening

You'll probably ask why we haven't "seen" a bunch of motors blown up from them, the answer is we probably have and it's blamed on other things like port injection or the tune ect.
I know of two local cars that have blown motors that were using NLS.

Doesn't the JB4 2-Step/ NLS also cut power to the coils?
