So a while ago a kid I went to tech school with saw my idi and decided to tell me how I can make it more powerfull. He tells me that he had one ( non turbo) and all he did was advance the timing to 11 degrees and it was making over 800 hp to the wheels. And that truck pullers do this all the time. Ya sure guy haha.

I didn't even bother arguing with him. I'm just like "oh that's cool". He was dead serious too

That's great news! I modified my timing tape to indicate the ideal spot. That's way too easy!!!! :rotflmao

I'll bet you didn't know that you could take a couple feet of flight line, stuff it in a bucket of prop wash, and when it hardens, you'll have a cold-air intake that adds 50 HP and never needs changed ever again. LOL

I once got a kid to bring his car to a garage to get the power window fluid changed because if he didnt change it every 10,000 miles it could stop working. He wasn't to happy the next time I saw him
