Recently bought a 02 type s with about 100k on the clock...car seemed to run fine minus the lack of vtec and price was good so i jumped on it...get to digging into it later and find i have the dreaded timing code that was being concealed wih the Kpro...i pulled the valve cover to discover my timing off by about 3 teeth...so i have decided to replace the timing chain, guides and tensioner since i hear its a common problem on kseries...this is my question though, the car was at one time boosted along with a few other setups, im wondering if the timing could have been altered with Kpro via cam angle or something else? I am not familiar with tuning at all and Kpro is still somewhat confusing to me, i just dont want to end up replacing the chain and my timing still be off cause of something in Kpro that i dont know how to correct if thats even possible...i tried flashing to the stock tune and using it but the car wouldnt even start on that, im guessing cause the timing was off or because i have 440cc injectors idk...any help/input is appreciated.

 

KPRO cannot alter the teeth your chain is or is not on...it can only vary the advance on the intake cam using OIL PRESSURE as the medium to vary this...so it can only be done while the motor is running. This is NOT jumping teeth...

Replace the chain, guides and tensioner and get yourself to a good tuner
