timing advanced

messed with the timing today. cranked it all the way up. man what a diffrence vs stock timing. temps are down boost is down and man it pulls harder when that pedal is on the floor! smokes less too. if it wanst for this site my truck would still be in the slow lane.

Judging by your sig, sounds like a fun truck to drive! You definitely need a fair amount of timing when running pods.

How far does 1 go with the timing-I only moved it an 1/8 of an inch-should I take it over to head? As the little I moved it didn't seem to do too much! And can't seem to get the smoke down! The biodiesel I made made it run a little quieter and cut some of the smoke!

I have my pump moved one full tooth inside from stock plus it's almost hiting the head on the out side. I can move it one more tooth and still be safe. Runs like a viper.

Zane, push the timing as far as you can move it. Like Greg said, POD's need a lot of timing to burn the fuel.
