dyno's don't all read the same, but if you say its better now then it should be interesting.

Its seems alot quicker and sharper now. I will get the re-dyno and see what it says... But at the least - I know where I stand with the upgrades I want to get. Looking at Head work shortly... Want to spend about $1,000-$1,300 on cam, cam gears, valve springs... Then save up for em 2 b put in lolz

edit: or do you think a uni chip or the like will be a far better investment ?

Unichip or aftermarket ECU after you spend money on cam, headwork etc.
Much more gains when the motor has been worked a little

My misconception on this matter (The fact I stupidly thaught they (eseries) could be tuned) Occured as I went into the mechanics and asked for a "Dyno Tune" this I thaught would incorporate some "Tuning". How many ways can you tune a car when you ask for a "dyno tune"... You can advance the timing (But if you ask for a dyno tune they do not do that; unless requested). Or you can remap ECU (Which standard eseries ecu's cant have done). So when he took the keys - there wasnt any mention of "hey is that a standard ecu? cuz if it is, its a waste of $$$"...
So yer, got car dynod 112rwkw before 4degree advance.
and 112.3rwkw after 4degree advance.

So I must say, im happy with my $160, 0.3rwkw ! lolz :S my bad
But it is alot better on fuel :S but not $160 better :P

Unfortutately. just because you got .3 it may not be from the timing adjust ment. You can run a car up twice and get 10 or more without mod's!

Don't worry, mote people think their car can be tuned.

...and drifting :P

what's drifting? :P

Going OT here don't wanna make a new thread, how do you advance the timing on an EF ?

Cheers

You need a eftermarket ECU IIRC or if u can some how make up a adjustable bracket for the CAS you could advance it that way
