Basically you want to tune spark on a dyno, and give someone that it is not his first time tuning spark to tune it for you...
How to look on a spark map:
Spark can be dangerous to your engine, if knock knock on your door your engine could go byebye.
Because of that, if you're a beginner at tuning, I suggest you give the spark tuning to someone experienced - on a dyno.

Are you still writing this blog?
ReplyDeleteYes, from time to time, any thing specific you would like to see ?
ReplyDeleteis this the actual spark you are using
ReplyDeleteWell, no, it is too advanced for my fuel, I'm about 3deg retard on it @ boost.
ReplyDeleteI love the content dude. Just found this site and think this is the best instruction for the ms that ive seen thus far. Even better than the manufacturer site even....
ReplyDeleteThanks alot ! appreciated !
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog.
Is this an 1.6 or 1.8 engine? nonVVT or VVT?
I have a 1.8 2000 NB with Turbo (stock rods) and I think my spark map is a little bit conservative.
If the engine is same (compression) what do you think, could I try your spark map? :)

send me your spark map

Hello.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this blog! You've helped me a lot with getting my 2000 NB running.
My NB is currently N/A and fairly stock. I was wondering if you had(or knew where to find) a spark map to get started with. I know it will eventually need to be perfected on a dyno, but if there is a good starting map, that would be great!
Thanks
You can copy the map for NA engine.
DeleteHi there, hopefully you may see this,
ReplyDeleteI got my car dyno tuned using a PnP megasquirt, I went to change the timing belt yesterday and the lower crank pulley was off by a tooth (i have a picture) my question is now that I have set the timing with the belt correctly is the igntion table going to be way off?

ReplyDeleteAnyway you should check base timing and set it right and offset the ignition table the same amount.
