advanced timing on ga16det

kwertis · Apr 7th, 2004, 11:49 PM

this is a dumb question, but i just want to ask to be on the safe side. my timing is currently advanced 10 deg. and i was just wandering if it will be safe to keep it advanced once the turbo is on. i couldn't find anything anywhere to see if wes's or anyone else's is still advanced so i figured it'd be better to just ask. well thanks in advance

set timing at 15* for boost. with 9.5:1 compression detonation can quickly become an issue.

I think you're thinking about an SER mike...

What type of fuel managment are you running? Well it really doesn't matter because if you're going turbo I would move the timing back to stock since even 1-2 deg can cause pinging/detonation, I don't know what you're 10 deg would do... why do you have it advanced 10 deg anyways?

JWT ECU and timing = 10 degrees. With or without boost.
