Ignition conversion suggestions

I am looking to put in an adjustable timing ignition for my 95 lightning, have nitrous and top half build, not sure exactly all the components to purchase. Would like to go with MSD. Tired of constantly running around on nitrous ignition timing, when nitrous not in use, need a quick way to adjust. Help needed!

MSD Digital 6 box will do what you looking for.

I have one works great. Run around with timing like you need it for N/A.

Has a built in retard as soon as you activate the Nitrous.

Additional Info

Thanks for the suggestion.

All I see in the part description, is the box. What else will I need to convert or change to,.....i have all stock ignition components, aside from wires. Does this include the in dash timing adjuster? Do I need that with this kit? If not, how does it work when using nitrous.......how does it know?
