well i just got off the fone with my friend (the one who tuned it for me) and to my mistake we added timing to the motor so i think there is 4 degrees of timing as for a plugs i run ngk tr6s wit .35 gap and according to a jetting calulator i running a 135 shot.. hope that helps as far as my firend that tuned it he lives 4 1/2 hrs away form me and i dont know any body with hp tuner around me so i cant get it retuned unless i do a mail order tune...
also, find a new tuner. Pay a PROFESSIONAL to tune you car. Damn. If my buddy was tuning my car and accidentally added too much timing and it blew up, I would kill him. Thats not a mistake you shrug off...that dude just cost you a new motor

32 degrees on a 135 shot? Wow, that's all I can say. I have to ask though, how does someone accidentally add 4 degrees instead of pulling 4 degrees? What tuning program does he have?
Just wondering what size jets were you running?

But my car runs better leaner/less timing than richer/more timing. I would guess most other cars would respond similiarly.
