<VV> "Tweaks",, not Mods to a Turbo system..

[Matt Nall]

 What kind of tweaking are we talking about? 

==========================================================


"Mods"  require changing parts... "Tweaks" are adjustments  / changes




 Stock distributor is set at 24 BTDC... and gets no advance until 3600 rpm or higher..


1  Set the base timing to 30 btdc....  let the Pressure retard  set the timing back under boost....


You need 28-29  btdc to have boost and keep it...  This is why the Dale Adv. - Ret.  unit  is popular...
but it fails to keep the timing at 28-9  during boost.


2  Wrap the exhaust.....  Summit sells it cheaply...takes 1 hr. to install...  keeps the HEAT  in the pipe!


3  Remove the stock muffler and  punch a hole thru it...  it will still be quiet enough.. Turbo acts as a muffler...


Many "stockers"  Tweaked like this perform quite nicely!  Boost in 1st gear after only driving the car for 5 minutes... not 10 miles on the highway!
