(prehistoric dyno). The guy there told me that if you do not buckle the seatbelt before a dyno run, the computer registers this and changes the ignition timing to reduce performance. IS THIS TRUE???? Or was his hands in his pants??? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/16340-perfomance-change/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
