Hi all!
I had the shop bump my timing +2. I want to try resetting my ECU, but am concerned that the timing will revert to normal. I dont have a 7000$ consult 2 so of course I dont want this to happen.
how about it? If I reset ECU will timing go back to stock?

You can use the Consult to clear the self learn memory or leave your battery disconnected for a couple of hours... Does not impact the timing change...

I mean what exactly do you do ask a nissan tech to grab a consult 2 and tell them to advance you timing, BUT if you were running FI wouldnt you want them to retard the timing.......

I don't suppose anyone can list the exact procedure the tech has to do to advance the timing? My tech can't figure out how to do it.
Also, will the 2 deg advance benefit an engine running the Crawford Plenum only?

It's probably ok to do it with a plenum but that is just going to bring you that much closer to pinging. I had mine advanced but returned to stock timing since the power gain was hardly noticeable and with more mods I don't want any detonation.
Do not advance your timing. TRUST ME. You will make better power with stock timing .
