Steeda timing adjusters

[Blk99SvtCobra]

a Steeda timing adjuster was the worst mod i ever put on my car it felt qwicker at 14 degrees of timming but i was not able to hold any speed i would constantly need to accelerate or slowdown for my ar to stop boging
i turned it down to 11 and stock and it still happend
it felt like my engine was dieing
i removed it today woo hoo
and its back and running beautifully again
Dont ever get this part unless youre aiming for a new motor

Did you make sure it was installed correctly? Could also be that you have a defective adjuster. I have had good luck with mine and so have many others with this mod. It really is a proven mod. Good luck.

you didnt install it right. mine worked great for me. if you dont install the crank bolt right then you car will act crazy.

It really isn't that great of a mod for these motors. After all I've done with my old Steeda TA, I won't change my timing unless it's by computer on the dyno with A/F. Besides, on some cars (like mine), the adjuster did nothing but cause timing to become retarded due to the knock sensor.

It works fine for me before I put it on I would eat plugs up running nitrous. With the TA I am able to retard the timing a few degrees before I hit the track and the plugs come out fine at the end of the day. I think you installed it wrong or you had a bad TA

Dump the T/A and get a good dynotune and chip from a good tuner. They will be able to advance the timing properly w/o the timing adjuster.

this is a good alternative yet an expensive one. T/A is a cheaper solution to people with more mods in the future and do not want to dump $$$ for a dyno tune for every mod they get. But after your about done with hp mods, dumping the timing adjuster and getting a good tune is the best way to go.
