im using a 91 octane Tune from james at henson performance and was wondering if there are any adverse effects on my engine from advancing the timing...i tried the maximum which is +4 from 0-2000 rpm,+4 from 2000-4000 and +2 from 4000-8000...i noticed alot more low end power and i like it..but i dont know if its good for my engine..anyone out there with knowledge on advancing and retarding timing.
 






As long as you don't hear pinging when you are driving, you should be fine. And as always, best to email James on his opinion since he is your tuner and knows a little more about this than most of us;)
 






Ya as long as your not getting any pinging or anything you should be good.
