Advancing the timing
I was reading a post in one of the forums about advancing the timing. I heard the dealership will advance the timing +2 degrees if you ask them. Any word? Any dynos?

Ive heard this too, but I have also read where the car was already advanced enough that it made more power with 94 octane gas than 91, meaning that even at stock timing the car is getting the most power it can from 91 octane, any more timing on standard premium gas would just make the computer retard timing

I had this done to my altima and I'm having it retarded back today. The reason is I have been the the track many times and don't think it really did anything to my times.
Well I guess I will see cause I will be at the track either tommorrow or saturday......
