Mega timing advance = mega power gains?

It is a real number. However , I only see it under a light load 10-15% 1300-1600 rpms

 

Sure. The onboard stuff might be far from the precision target, but being completely missing is an odd one, esp for oil temp. Like, why bother reporting estimated oil temps over OBD if the sensor isn't even there.

 

If you go above 52 degrees you will need a CMC.

 

Huh? I'm just reacting to another crazy thread started by the same OP and wondering if he just trolling us.

In any case VVTI is Variable Valve Timing and Intelligence which is a fairly new tech. Variable ignition timing has been around a very very long time. I think I personally first encountered it on my 1974 Datsun vacuum advance system, but I think it is far older than that.

 

Model Ts had adjustable (manually) ignition timing. Just about every engine ever made has it in some form.

 

Now you can leave your wipers up in the air 24/7 like all the other winter wannabes..

 

No sirrie

 

Don't need coolant temp gauge either. My Subaru has just two idiot lights - blue for cold, red for hot, and no light at normal temp.

 

The "Ignore" feature on the forum can be a very useful tool.

 

OP in another few threads:

 

Not sure what the normal range is for the Tacoma but high numbers are not unusual for light load or deceleration conditions.

I know you say you see higher numbers with 91 but the test will be what the numbers are under load. In my testing on a stock tune my timing under load did not change regardless of 87,91, or 93 (top tier included).

You really need to do data logging and compare on a computer or graphical display, looking at a value at one time isn't terribly informative.

 

Im baffled by his genius

 

can you tell me... what would the correct ignition timing be on a 1955 Bel Air Chevrolet, with a 327 cubic-inch engine and a four-barrel carburetor?

 

8-12°

 

Chevy didn't make a 327 in '55, the 327 didn't come out till '62. And it wasn't offered in the Bel Air with a four-barrel carb till '64. However, in 1964, the correct ignition timing would be four degrees before top-dead-center.

Ms. Mona Lisa Vito has spoken.

 

You never specified all original...

 

now we know i was guessing

 

Ok so maybe I've watched My Cousin Vinny one too many times......

 

The Wing Tip Speed Framulator Adjustment Sleeve has to be carefully tightened when advancing timing otherwise “the thing” happens.
