| Chip is a 20 degree timing and drops back to 18 degrees in 3rd gear. I am not doing anything special at all, just a 100k+ mile short block with alot of bolt ons. The DS file only showed 2 small amounts of timing retard .. first was hazing the tires in second gear and the other was from chirping the tires on the shift to 3rd gear. neither time did the timing retard exceed 2.5 degrees. The engine was leaning out towards the end of the 1/4 mile run, EGT reached 1600 degrees, but this engine seems to like it a little lean on the top end. Here is the list of bolt ons the car has on it Champion heads cnc series ported stock intake w/ egr filled roll master timing set T63e turbo w/ garrett exhaust housing ATR 3 inch DP w/ external waste gate ATR single shot exhaust system 340 pump hot wired Eastern Performance front mount IC Delphi 85# injectors precision industries 3000 stall 5 disc l/u converter F body aluminum radiator Short block has 100k+ miles on it. Still has the stock cam in also.

| Nice combo! Nice combo! What kind of ET's are you running with it? I suspect I can't get near 22 psi because I'm on a stock turbo with an unported, stock intercooler and unported, stock heads. Trying to shove 10# of &%$* in a 5# bag. I think I may still have 20 deg of timing in third, I need to check.

| Don't have a time slip for it yet ... Between work, the ol' lady, and breaking trannys; I just can't seem to find time to get to a legit track, but hopefully soon.

| If it's running good....... they might kick you out for not having a bar anyhow. I would think you would be well into the 11's at 22 PSI with that turbo.

| If I can get the car to run in the low 12's with a street tuned chip I will be extremely happy.
