well thats not comforting.... here is what I have currently right now.
Edit: Where should I go up in my timing? I know the stock srt map shows timing going in the high 40's, but scared to do it.......or should I just change and up the timing? The car made a huge idle difference going from 16 degrees at idle to the 35 I have it at now. I had heard as long as its between 1400-1500 it was ok...., but also heard it needs to be down near 1k.
35 deg at idle, thats crazy!
yup I agree....I turned it back down because it sounded like a pissed off john deer. I have it back down to 16 degrees and it stays between 800 and a 1100. I do have it at 42 degrees at cruising speeds of 45-80 right now and at its warmest it will get to 1600 while part throttling through the gears to get up to speed.....boosting maybe 8-10psi. While cruising though its at just about 1400...maybe lil less or lil more depending. At 50 and below I am around 1200-1300.
