I can't explain it. The guy who tuned it is an expert. Not me. Why would he lie to me and say he advanced the timing? I could care less if he did advance it or not. All I know is the results are better then pretty well everyone out there with the same mods. Explain that. I thought I'd let you know that perhaps some of the so called experts on the org may not have all the answers. I know this guy has tuned 100's of cars and mostly with the "blue box" as he called. I told him there was disagreement in here about whether or not timing advance was possible or not. I don't remember his exact words but he said something to the effect that it depended on something looking for the igniter. And I know he could have advanced the timing further, but he was afraid of pinging, because ages ago when I did the baseline the engine was pinging. He remembered that. I didn't tell him it was a newer engine replaced under warranty. If I was running 94 I could have posted better numbers. But I couldn't justify paying the price of 94 octane gas at well over 4 bucks a gallon in Ontario.
We can argue in here until the cows come home. I'll visit with dandymax next week and one of us can eat crow when I post the outcome.
