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......

Lol. Well GriffGirl, 60+ miles everyday, 95% of it highway miles. And btw 808Celica, you can use 89 octane gas for 15 degrees. People have done it and have nothing wrong with their motor. But if you turn it a tad higher, I would seriously recommend 91 or 93 octane.

make sure you check your timing with the TE1 and E1 terminals in the diagnostic box jumped. my friend forgot to do that on his AE86 corolla and tried to advance it a little, then was having problems with a lack of power a little bit later, checked his timing and reset it to stock, but still had the same problem. then later found out he needed to do that, went back after jumping them, and saw his timing was retarded 15 degrees below spec!
