I was told by 2 ppl at CFT that every line is 2* of timing and i was at -4 from the start. But whatever it was, the car picked up a good amount of hp and tq from the change
but like i side good numbers.

i just spoke to your tuner. and he says the samething 1 mark 1 degree.... Fidanza also states that this gear offers 12 degrees of timing +/-. meaning your gears would only count up to 6 on either side. i have the same gears and they read 12 degrees +/-. CFT should do a little more research before they give out the wrong information.
but like i side good numbers.

-1, 0 and -2* is not enough to form quality results.
HKS gears I believe are 2* marks, most other manufacturers are 1* marks. They are mistaken.
Basically 0, -1, and -2 were tested and I really don't see a conclusive result in moving just 1* from -2 to -1 and picking up 10whp. That is basically taking up a tick of slack in the tbelt. Too many other factors could have been the cause.
I would have further liked to see a 4th gear pull as it would be closer to the conditions in which the car was tuned for.

What mods are you going with?
Nothing else was touched in between the pull at -2 and -1, everything else was left the same and the cam gear was the only thing adjusted.. Matter of fact there was less cool down time between these 2 passes than the other ones. Next time i hit the dyno with new mods, ill be willing to make another test.
