Simple Ign. Timing Question
I have a mod. 89 honda crx hf with a gsr head witha b16a2 short block. I have the car runnin now and was wondering for the ignition timing. Do I set it at 15 degrees B/c I'm using a Chipped P-72 (obd-1) ecu on my car? Also note that I already did the obd-0 to obd-1 conversion already and I brought the car to a local shop to do check my timing. They check it and set it at 22 Degrees B/c I burn out and crack two of my valves. (which suxc) So once again do I set it at 15 degrees? (the number came from Acura)

Is that initial timing or total timing? My car is running 16 degrees initial timing and 31 degrees at 3k. 21 degrees base timing seems a little high to me. Especially on a car with a chipped ecu thats adding a couple more degrees of total advance. As long as there is no detonation you should be fine. But typically a car will run better on the top end with timing retarded a little bit.

I need to know initial timing and total timing. B/c my total timing is 22 degrees and my chip has a on/off switch.
Thanks
