Please tell me the engine type(20vt,16vt,...) and the chip you are using too (standard, gtech1/2, ...). Thanks in advanced

Unfortunately, I don't have the widget I just wanted to know if the conversion used by barnacle to calculate ignition advance was right and it seems to be the case ! Well done barnacle Last edited by crazyf1; 29/10/2008 21:53.
