dont touch your base timing, just dial out detonation with the btm.

ive actually been waiting for a post like this...
i also want to know this...since there are absolutely no tuners around here...and turbo civics are extremely rare...

Yeah well it's been here since 03', tool.

Ditch the hack and BTM. You will have 101 problems. I had the same motor as you and had an incredible amount of problems. From fouled plugs, to misfiring, to complete stalls, oh and the support for it SUCKS. Go with a setup from Xenocron.

^^^ :8 thanks cool guy...at least i used the shearch tool...^^^this post might be here since 03 but i havent seen it...and you havent posted on it...so if you have nothing to say about the actual post...then..... :6
...this is coming from someone who has reached his goal with a BTM ???? i dont get it :S

Re: timing w/ hack and btm?
 

STFU and die. I sent him a pm that better explains my opinions. I couldnt reach any of my goals because I wasted my money on a hack and btm. Plain and simple.
