Default IAT tricking... except I need it to say the air is hot! help

I need the AIT to read hot so it will pull timing... im running WAAAAYYYY too much timing and im finding that the car runs fine during the day, but when it cools off at night it knocks like crazy and I literally cant go WOT in 3rd gear... any one know which resistor will make the IAT go to the most amount of retard it can? This is just a temporary fix until I can get more tuning done

4.7k is 57 degrees. For each .1 you change 7 degrees. So, a 5.2k should read 92 degrees, for instance.

I'm just going off of my feable memory, btw.

is 92 degrees the highest possible? I just want to dial in the most retard I can until I can have the timing dropped on my ecu

Higher R = lower temp.

9420 ohms = 32 *F - 0 *C
7280 ohms = 41 *F - 5 *C
5670 ohms = 50 *F - 10 *C
4450 ohms = 59 *F - 15 *C
3520 ohms = 68 *F - 20 *C
2796 ohms = 77 *F - 25 *C
2238 ohms = 86 *F - 30 *C
1802 ohms = 95 *F - 35 *C
1459 ohms = 104 *F - 40 *C
1188 ohms = 113 *F - 45 *C
973 ohms = 122 *F - 50 *C
667 ohms = 140 *F - 60 *C
467 ohms = 158 *F - 70 *C
332 ohms = 176 *F - 80 *C
241 ohms = 194 *F - 90 *C
177 ohms = 212 *F - 100 *C
132 ohms = 230 *F - 110 *C
100 ohms = 248 *F - 120 *C
77 ohms = 266 *F - 130 *C
60 ohms = 284 *F - 140 *C
47 ohms = 302 *F - 150 *C

what is the highest that will register on a 01 FBody, and any ideas how much timing it pulls?

Cat, I haven't tested what I said about the higher number having a higher temp value. It's just something I picked up on another board a long time ago and have never heard any different. I've always just used the 4.7k ohm which gives me 57 degrees. Have you tested to see if what you said is correct?

SS, I don't know how high it'll go. You might consider getting LS1Edit to manipulate your timing advance more precisely.

Awesome info! I believe that SlowHawk also posted about using the IAT sensor and a relay to pull timing during a nitrous shot!

I cant afford the LS1 edit, I just paid for a cam package and custom tuning, I just need to get it dialed in so I can send the results to LG to get a reflash... AZ sucks for tuning it seems with the heat and everything out here.

Timing tricker is great! I gained horsepower and mileage. I use a 5.9k in winter and 4.7k in summer.
