Hi guys, I just put the turbo kit for my 95 Integra and I just wanted to ask you which is the cheapest way to retard timing. I am planing on running 9 psi. I got everything else (garett t3, fmic,bov,charge piping, uptated fuel system) and retarding igition is all I need. And also how much should I retard. Please no bs just technical answers.

Thanks,

 

you want cheap or safe?

Best way would be a Hondata or something that will allow you to properly tune fuel and timing as well as all other aspects.

If you want something relatively cheap, you can use a boost timing retard device such as a BTM or BTC.

I have my Jackson Racing BTC and will sell it to you for $150 if you want it. can retard as little as 1/10th degree per psi up to 2 degrees per psi. This was designed for the supercharged cars but works just as well on turbos, boost is boost.

 

I highly recomend a btm you can get a new one for about $175 or find a used one for cheap (i paid $65). A less desireable way is to retard your timing by turning your distributor. That will effect your cam timing, injector timing, ignition timing and power output.

 

ok, do you have any websites that sell btm's for that price.
