advance timing kits I'm just curious, someone was selling something called this on ebay, saying it was an advance timing kit that increases hp. Something that simply plugs into a wire harness under the hood and tells the computer that colder air is coming in. Is this a big scam, and if it is, is there something cheap I can to get a few hp out of my 95 T-Bird V6?

Re: advance timing kits That guy has been busted on LS1.com trying to pass off instructions he printed from LS1.com and resistors from radio shack for everything from "Timing Kits" to "Skip Shift Eliminator Kits". The only thing he sends you is the instructions printed straight from LS1.com and a 10¢ resistor from Radio Shack.
