Fancy ignition questions

I've got an MSD power grid controller and 7 series box. It sends spark to a locked out distributor. The mechanical timing curve can be adjusted right from the power grid on a laptop. The curve is based off RPM, not engine load. This setup works awesome for WOT racing, but I noticed the engine starts to get warm (about 220*) at part throttle cruise due to no vacuum advance. Can I use a map sensor with the power grid to advance ignition at part throttle cruise? All new vehicles use a map sensor to determine engine load. I couldn't find a way to do it. Am I missing something, or do I need a more capable ECU like a Terminator or Haltech? I don't care about fuel injection, I just want the ability to play with the ignition maps.
