I actually have a safc-II in my Rs, and it does not do timing, I had to buy a seperate device for timing.

it does advance your timing, however, there is no way to adjust it with the AFC. just knock it back a few degrees at the dizzy

sorry, it advances timing when used with the hack, but it will not control timing.

Apex'I ITC will adjust timing for you.

Final Answer: Yes, using an AFC for the "hack" will advance timing. No, SAFC-II does not have a feature to independently control timing. This advancement of the timing is a side effect of using the AFC to control oversized injectors.

coorect it does not have a function for timing, BUT however as you pull fuel from the settings the motor advances timing due to alteration made by the MAP sensor

A timing control device will in no way address the issue of how an AFC recurves your ignition timing with "the hack"

What is your setup, and what do you have against chipping? We can advise, and it would probably be cheaper to go chipped than buy a BTM (which does nothing you think it does).
