Hi again kids. 4V guys...help me out here with a couple of simple things. Timing advance/adjustment on my 98 4V...what can you tell me? Tuning my 98 4V...is there ANYTHING to be gained from a $500 Dyno tune on this stock engine? ANY other tuning mods or 'optimizing what I have' comments are greatly appreciated! The car is stock but for weld in Flow 40s and a drop in K&N, along with tame 3:73 rear gears. This is a 'road racer/freeway runner' project rather than an all out drag car. OK? Again, you guys are GREAT! A million thanks!
Only thing a tune would do for you on your stock car - would be a timing advance. I would not waste my money - rather, you should wait until you have done any and all modding. Some tuners will give you lifetime reflashes or burns though - so in that case, you could get your tune now and be covered for any future mods. peace
I dont trust them - being a mechanical device and all - too hard to dial it in safely. I like changing the timing through the eec since you're commanding the actual numbers peace
