Lolololol I was only sorta kidding. Mainly because that’s a real thing you’d do with a v8 to get more base hp. I actually did that on my old car but I guess I’ll just deal with my slow boi timing till I get tuned

So should I have left it there an just told my tuner.

God it felt so fast though! But I guess a tuner can do that with some simple e tuning

Well i now only hit around 13 or 14 an lemme tell you. The car feels gutless compared to the 4.5* of timing I had lol. Sob flew before an feels slower now for sure

Nah I found my turbo inlet was a little loose. Tightened it. The bpv might have a crack in the return hose but not all the way through it. I can’t really find any leaks. Seems to sound better engine wise since the realigning of the crank. The stage 0 is probably why it’s hitting 17. It doesn’t...

Is 17.28 over boosting? I’m in Peoria AZ stage 0 tune. AFR still dips into the 9s during any wot but no other really concern that I can see. Will update post after I refill with 91

They come an go. I can drive check codes nonissue. Check again at random an theyre there. They don’t cause any issues I can see so Idk wtf to do about them

I love the redneckery but I took mine down to gears. Took it all off spin it over 360 it lined up the issue is it’s not possible with the engine in the car to get the torque they want on that bolt on the balancer. An I could’ve just loosened an retightened but I’ve heard or read about those...

Then you play the game of. Did I get oil on the diamond washers. I spent 40 bucks bought new washers took all the gears off. An the cams are aligned. Back on the timing cover goes an then I’m just going to use the 20th tooth fucked the alignment hole on the cover. I’m not doing this shit a third...

You’re not. The issue is the heads tdc. Plate in. Bolt in bottom side. There’s a hole in the timing cover an the balancer. They’re supposed to (according to ford) line up when timed properly. Can you redo the timing without having the upper cams loose? Do I have to loosen them so they spin free...

Is that a lot of timing ?

Idk. But now I have a huge issue. The hole that you would line up the balancer to timing cover don’t line up. As in my balancer would be on the 22nd tooth if I lined it up with the balancer hole. That hole an the hole on my balancer don’t line up with the 20th tooth. Why. Please any help here...

So I’m going to get a lot of flak for what I’m about to say. I triple checked timing again during compression with my master tech boss from ford. An I’m a tooth an a half off at the crank only. Cams are fine so I’m getting three new washers an redoing all that. I could probably do just one on...

On the dot.

These are the plugs. Doing comp/leak down test at the moment. Never done a leak down test Cyl 1. 180 2. 180 3. 180 4. 180. Now for leak down.

That’s why you use a 24mm wrench to hold the cam? Not trying to argue. I never removed mine as I was told that’s a good way to end up having to retime your heads.

Another 20 or so would’ve got me over 500 NA WOULDA BEEN WORTH !

The E untuned an for better or worse has literally transformed the car. No stumble. No KR. ITS CRAZY I had no clue E was so crazy def should’ve tuned my gto on E

White tip. Little rich. Light carbon dust on the base of the threads. Did a head gasket test when I check them. Should I post a 1 2 3 4 5 WOT log

The BCM seems to control the throttle as that’s where I found both U codes its the only lead I have as no matter what I try you all tell me timing. Timing has been absolutely 100% been confirmed. It’s not timing. I’ll post what fixes it. Appreciate you all.
