I also wondered about a similar thing as I had a Vtec typeR dc22 and wondered if an HKS v-tec controller would help the ford any ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just interested to see how it would go before forking out for the atomic vernier gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4LEDboy Member 11 Member For: 14y 7m Posted 21/06/11 06:53 AM Author Share Posted 21/06/11 06:53 AM that's right from what I've read, it changes the timing when cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_4.0 Member 1,096 Member For: 14y 1m 2d Posted 21/06/11 08:24 AM Share Posted 21/06/11 08:24 AM Advances at low revs and retards up high. Think bf actually advances again just before limiter to pull some power back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
