My friend advanced the timing on his civic and beat me...

...oh well i was completely stock...now hes got all this internal crap done to his manifold and is still scared to race me. :award ....but i am interested in knowing how to do that to a mustang as well.

ours are electronically timed as far as I know. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure you can use the xcal, or livewire, or any other tuner like that do to so.

The timing is computer controled. You will need a tuner, chip, or software package. The days of turning the distributor and changing centri weights are gone.

thank god. I have seen my uncle do it I'm glad I can press a button lol. BUt yeah an x-cal can do it.

With xcal2's, don't you have to get them already programmed? I have a spyder tuner and I can change those things right from the software that loads onto the laptop. Of course I know you can totally screw up your car if you don't know what you're doing. That's why I went with octane rating presets. I was just curious...

breakout831 · March 26th, 2007, 03:15 PM

I did change the temp at which my fan comes on to 10 degrees less. That's the only thing I did extra

GreenFaleen · March 26th, 2007, 03:17 PM

you get a canned tune, but you can change everything with your laptop and there are also things you can alter like fan speed and shift points on the handheld itself while your tuning with a SCT.

so i can plug in my livewire... if i had one... and come up with numbers go back to my laptop modify my tune and then re plug it in?

how do i get a hold of the laptop program... does it come with my SCT product?
