quick modd I did this last week

so I haven't really done a lot of modding yet but I did add the grounding kit and also I advanced my timing 2 degrees .
All I have to say is do it if you haven't done it already ! It's almost like doing this has synced my engine to the transmission causing the shifts to be much more accurate and improved throttle response greatly .

Has anyone on this site done this modd ?
What are you thoughts with this modd/adjustment ?

Quite a few people have done the grounding kit and claim to have positive results. I just ordered one off eBay for $40 shipped yesterday.

Is that something a dealer could do with a scan tool, or will it void warranty? If it smooths things out with engine to trans operstaion...Could be worthwhile.

with a scan tool you can go into the timing and advance/retard it . Advance it 2 degrees and you will be happy

I thought you couldn't do that permanently without having to flash the ecu... since most scan tools allow you to advance or retard timing temporarily for diagnostic or testing.

Hmmm... I may bring this up to my mechanic next time I'm over there and see what he thinks about adjusting the timing.

Very interesting, I would have assumed this would all be controlled by the ECU mapping....Might have to check into this.
