We have adjusted it to max power of 8-11 h.p depending on mods you have. It is as far as one want to go on 91+ octane but still safe in case you need to run lower octane. We can adjust it but you cannot. It is set. We did a lot of work with it and dynos etc.... to make sure. Thanks

you said in this thread to use 91 octane but on your website it says "89 or higher octane". Will it be ok to use 89 octane all the time with this timing control box paired up with a piggy? or will there be a risk of engine knock if not 91?

safer to run 91. Run 91. minimum threshold is 89. This is just like the recommended vs. minimum debate in the manual of alot of performance cars.

run the recommended!

Had my control timing box installed for about it a week now .. Kind of disappointed, or perhaps my expectations were to high! I didn't really notice a difference to be honest with you all, I got a bigger gain in H.P with my Magnaflow catback exhaust. Am I doing something wrong..? I am running on 91 Octane.

Maybe RRM should of focused on more on the bottom end (2500 - 3500 RPM) range of the spectrum. I'm not bashing anyone here, just expressing my thoughts.

Cheers,
Dave

Dave there is a behaviour issue with our ECU , gains may be apparent over time vs. immediate. Did you reset your ECU when you installed the unit. Even still, it also may take longer then you expect for gains to be felt.

Timings seem to be affected by our Canadian ECU version.

Aw ok. How do I reset my ECU? and does that cause any harm anything or will my dealership notice something? I just removed the unit a few minutes ago because I'm going to mitsu for maintenance tomorrow.

I guess it is all about expectations. We know it works. Too many guys loving it and dynos confirm it. It is so good we are going to do one for the older 04-06 Ralliarts. It is almost done.
