Can the timing adjuster screw anything up or does it just add HP and thats it. i mean , ive heard some bolt ons can cause problems like underdrive pulleys causing overheating problems and undercharging the battery.... i dont want to put any mods in that will screw up something else.. know what i mean

Hey guys... I have a Superchip and it claims to bump up the timing to 14 degrees. Is this even possible and if so should I even look into getting a timing adjuster because my timings already bumped.. or am I just a complete moron.

well if you already have your timing bumped to 14 degrees and dont ever plan on getting a power adder (s/c, turbo, nitrous) then you dont really have a need for the adjuster. if you plan on adding a power adder though its a must! You can change your timing in like 2 mins! super easy
