[QUOTE="GM2Ford, post: 16212734, member: 142902"] Teksid Block. 9.6:1 CR. ARP Stuff... etc. Stock 04 Cobra Heads. I wasn’t sure how to increase timing advance on the SCTx3 when tuners leave options unlocked, the direction wasn’t entirely too clear. I’m assuming he must’ve thought I already knew how to navigate completely around the SCTx3. Here lies why I asked the question on how to “increase timing on the device.” That’s really all I was getting at. I have since searched around and found some helpful items on the web that have answered some of these questions. But yes, I’m well aware of Lidio & I have consulted him a few times. His direction to me was that, “if it’s going to be coming to me for tuning, please make sure everything is 100% mechanically sound and absolutely no issues.” He sorta told me how it’s a major inconvenience when customers bring their “builds” to him to tune that are “ready to go,” but when he gets started, there’s other issues to be addressed. So before I even decide to give my car to him, I’m making sure absolutely everything is satisfied. From the minor to major modifications, maintenance, etc. engine related or not. Once that’s satisfied, I will consult him for a proper dyno tune. This has sorta moved to another direction than intended from the initial posting of this thread. In this particular thread I was sorta seeking advice on just timing advance, etc. not too much direct tuning stuff, yet lol Just input from others experience on what timing advances they’ve had experience with and what’s considered “conservative/aggressive.” Also, my tuner sometimes can be a little bit slower in responding, as are most reputable remote tuners. Especially since you’re dealing with completely different lives, schedules, time zones, etc. But yes +1, definitely will be hitting up Lidio bud! Compression isn’t high at all. It’s at 9.6:1. Good insight! I’m running strictly e85 only! & also would like to avoid anything that could run the risk of instances I’ve read about regarding “head lifting, etc.” [/QUOTE]
