Advance or retard timing
#3
i advanced my timing from 14 to 17 btdc and i noticed a bump in low end response and a little better gas mileage. it was explained to me advancing when you are NA will allow the motor to operate more efficently. i believe it does gain some in higher rpms but its so small that it is hard to be felt.

I think the 99 can have there timming advanced. The ecu in the 99 is similar to the 2000+. I remember having a service tech check my codes and they had to us the newer type for the 5th gens. The 95-98 consult didn't work.
