Default Timing, Etc. Adjustments ?

Do timing, a/f ratio, etc., adjustments have to be programmed into the PCM, or is this something I can do myself? I've had AutoTap for about 4 months, and figured winter would be a good time to learn how to use it <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> Thanks.

Those are all functions of the PCM, and as such are not really "end-user adjustable." However, items like MAF translators, etc, do allow you to adjust the AF ratio, and can also have small effects on timing.

Thanks George!! I'm not sure that I even need any adjustments. The car is running excellent, but I always wonder if it's performing as good as it possibly can <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
