Re: Need help setting up ignition settings on PP6

If I can get in a turbo legacy, my Vicash Scan Tool can read timing and I can report back.

I am running 22 degrees I think at WOT. Probably could run more, but am not at moment.

Re: Need help setting up ignition settings on PP6

IF, you know what your timing is, then yes, it would be good to advance. However, with the PP6, it just can't happen. However..... I can advance timing with my PP6. How? I am running NA ECU. Which at WOT is 32 degrees! WAY to advanced. So I PULL timing way back. But when I switched to E85, I pulled ...

Re: Need help setting up ignition settings on PP6

Instead of advancing timing, you can pull some fuel. Either advancing timing/pulling fuel will give you more power whatever.... BUT!!!!!!!

Do you have knock ears and/or wideband? If you don't have either, I wouldn't do either (well, I have, I have also blown too many pistons!)

Re: Need help setting up ignition settings on PP6

You CAN NOT advance timing.

It just doesn't fucking work.

That said, you really don't want to probably. Do you KNOW what the timing really is at WOT at all RPM levels?

You can tune the pp6 (add/pull fuel, and pull timing) with the pp6 where as the REV chip is set.

Re: My Dyno Results (Lets Discuss) **Pic and Vids**

Yes.... BUT!!!!!!!!! The AFR may be off a point or two.... BUT IT STILL MATTERS!!!!! C'mon... Just look at the graph. At 5500 rpm, power takes a crap, AND AFR dumps rich, and boost levels goes even worse.... It is all connected. I suspect a shitty turbo/wastegate/MBC combined with a MAXXED MAF signal.

Re: FS: Built Long Block

I built it. Crank was polished and used new ACL bearings upon rebuild. Bloack was honed and hot tanked before rebuild. Pistons and rings were new. Was going to use for myself but ended up trading to Spencer.
