hey i am running a 14b turbo with 450 injectors and an afc. i have the settings i need. I need to know how much i have to retard the distributor and also if i retard it on the motor or on the afc. Thanks

projekteg

how much boost do you plan on running?

91hbvtec

Not much of a fan of the AFC but if you have to run it, I would say retard 2-4 degrees at the distributor.

im gettin uberdata soon. jus need to find someone to tune it. thanks for the answer.

where you located? but yeah, like xenocron said, prolly about 2-4° at the distributor. if you run colder plugs gapped down and run 93 octane with a good intercooler, you could get away with no retard. there are people who have run about 10psi with no retard, but that's up to you.

im located in ohio. im gonna run bosch platinum and i have 93 octane. i also havea JRC frontmount. so idk we will see how it runs. Thanks alot

don't run bosch plugs, they suck. run one step colder ngk's, if you have a d series, you can just ask for stock ngk vpower plugs for a 00 civic si, those will be one step colder than your stock plugs, if you want two step colder plugs, i believe the ngk part number is bkr7e-11, either way, it's the same part number as the si plugs, but have a '7' in the part number instead of a '6' which represents the heat range of the plug.
