Performance Cam Timing!?

Postby MIK3Y on Tue Sep 16, 2003 11:33 pm

Hi, mine idles a little rough (not revs just sound) so was woundering what the crack is when using an adjustable pullie.

Does 0 = standard timing? Obviously to get the best out of a performance cam the timing needs setting. What is invloved in doing this?

Was hoping to get it done when i get my chip from Motor Sport Developments, what costs am i looking at and is there a cheaper alternative or a way of guessing which will help performance? What's the norm? CheeRS
Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it.
