if you've set your timing correct, then yes

ymerej47 · September 27th, 2007, 01:04 PM

What should my timing be set at?

-cold-machine- · September 27th, 2007, 01:12 PM

closer to TDC the better

-cold-machine- · September 27th, 2007, 03:12 PM

gotta be careful tho.. if its retarded o much or too advanced your car could run slugish and cause an annoying pining noise.

i had mine at 20* advanced, it will ping so you gotta use a higher octane fuel, i was running 94

-cold-machine- · September 27th, 2007, 03:14 PM

94 didnt stop the pinging in mine when it was 20 over..
only time i could get it to stop was by adding octane boost.

TurboLX · September 27th, 2007, 03:21 PM

Sunoco 94 worked fine for me

now i gotta run 104-107 octane

i got the turbo motor and set at 15* advanced so it pings badly
