on my celica i have a few mods and my cuisn tweaked with the timming a little bit and if u know what im talking bout the timming was set at 16 and it used to be at 5 and i noticed it gave it a lil more power and it kinda sounds a lil like its "caming". but it drives better and i have not noticed any problems at all..
what do u guys think about this i would like ur info...... -------------------- DRIVE UP..........

To be honest, in my opinion, advancing the ignition timing isn't really worth it. You are pumping more costly gas, use more gas, work the engine harder, wearing the engine faster, high probability of something going wrong, and only gain 1-2 ponies to the wheel with better engine responce. Feeling faster is one thing. Actually going faster is another.

Feeling faster is one thing. Actually going faster is another. true Only to an extent... the extra wear and tear is only if u dont use good gas... (which i only use V-power, cuz i want to keep may car for a long time) u dont actualy use more gas... your making better use of it.  and correct if im wrong, but there are members here that have gotten more than just 2 whp... and one more point id like to point out.. most of the members here are tuning the ignition timeing becuase we can, due to the car running PIG rich stock.. so migh as well get some power out of it wile your at it
