Speaking about the Knock Retard Boxes on Z18's...I have a few
questions about them I have been meaning to ask...
Does anybody know how they do the job of retarding the Ign.??
How effective are they?
Do they only work with the standard computer or are they
independent of the computer?
Is anybody on the list running one on their Z18t?
How do they cope with boost increases? etc etc....
just a couple of questions :)
