Advancing Ignition Timing?

[Daboss]

Hey forum how the hell are the greatest bunch of guys and gals this side of the world? Need some advice so I came to the experts. What I want to know is if you have a piggy back that is tuned with these mods shielded pod with cai, fmic, 3.5" turbo back exhaust with split dump, boost 10 lo and 12 hi on stock turbo and always run 100 octane fuel will advancing my ignition time give me any gains? Of course if it does I will retune when I am getting it done. Or with the piggy back tuned that means the ignition timing is already advanced? All help is appreciated and welcomed!!!!!! THANK YOU GUYS IN ADVANCE!

Ohhh sorry if I wasn't clear I was speaking of advancing it via cas.

I asked this a while back.

Its not in the thread but I came to the conclusion to leave the base timing as standard and not touch the CAS, but rather buy a new ECU and advance the timing via the computer, hence a tune.

advancing the cas is a dodgey way of doing it.

I recomend doing via the ECU piggy back if it has this feature.

If it doesn't, get a powerfc or something.

Thanks for the reply ppl its really appreciated. Just that my afc neo doesn't have that feature and really don't want to buy a pfc cus where I am at mod wise I am stopping and just wanted to get as much out of the ride as possible without modding any further. Rather buy a pfc for the gtr I am getting . So just leave the cas alone cus for an extra 5kw might end up causing me a new engine not even 5 degrees would be safe even if i always run 100 octane fuel?

You can probably get away with it. Its just dodge doing it.

I mean you've got no way of monitoring if your motor is pinging apart from when you can hear it with your ears.

I'd sell the AFC Neo and invest that money towards a PFC. Believe me when you get it and have it tuned, you'll say that was worth it. Or alternatively buy the cheaper but effective EMU.

The tune of the AFC would probably be advancing the timing anyway, usually you cant advance it anymore or it starts to ping. As you lean out the mixtures, the timing advances, usually you cant lean it out enough, because it advances too far and detonates
