Default HOLLY COW!!!!! bumped timing/removed air silncr

WOW!!!!!

Car sounds incredible, sounds really mean. Didnt think
it would change the sound of then engine that much.

Faster throttle response tons of pep. Nice free mods.

base timing was at 9! ouch, couldnt tell exactly what i set it to now.
just a bit past the 10 on the balancer, probably like 13. no pinging,
could probably get another a degree or two out of it.
