umm...instresting chris. I always taught you would have to move the 0 mark to the 1 degree setting. man all along i could of set it at 9adavnce which is a no no for me when boosting LOL. thanks man

It should be obvious how to do it since there are multiple, corresponding marks on both the outer and inner sections. I like the fact that they did it this way since it makes it easier to see your setting. If there was only a single mark on the inner section to index with, then the outer marks would all be bunched up really close to each other in a very small area.

BTW, looks like the Chicago climate does not much care for 12.9 grade bolts

yup thats the way to advance it...it was just hard to see when the car was on the dyno with little to no light

This is what I thought too.. although there are just lines on mine and no numbers.

No wonder I got shitty results! haha fuck.

Thanks for showing us this!

Lol, i always wondered why there was more than one mark on the inside lmao.

kinda explains are ERROR at the dyno guys lol..o well...tell next time

[87roach]

Yea...

kinda sucks that our gears don't have the numbers though.

I want a retry at the dyno please

Funny I would have thought the tuner shop would have known better...

Bring your car down to Olympia again. We could pay for an hour of dyno time, and play with all sorts of fun stuff!

If you know how to read a vernier style caliper it will be totally obvious; it's the same thing. But if you haven't I can see how it might not make sense at first. What you described is exactly how vernier calipers work. But most are either dial or digital now.

Yeah. All the engine bolts look like that now. When I rebuilt the engine I used a wire wheel to clean off the bolt heads. But it also cleaned off the plating so they all have surface rust on them now. I think those cam pulley bolts were black oxidized, which doesn't hold up well to humidity or even a hint of salt. Zinc plating is better. If I had the money I would replace them with stainless.

No numbers? That's kinda lame. Did you get yours in the last group buy?

yeah...i lost like 20hp too when mine slipped...lol...its ok as long as the valves dont hit the pistons

Yea it would be nice to play around with it, I would pay forsure. I want to be obd1 first though so that there are more options to play with
