Decided to pull the superchip, replace the octane bar

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will set the timing at 14* in my speed density 87 stang.

Will I feel a gain or a loss or do you think it will feel the same??

I have a full exhaust and 65mm TB with a K&N air filter. Do these chips work without mass air anyway??

I've had it in 12 years or so, but the exhaust is new...

If anything you will probably get a loss but not feel it. Or you may get a gain and not feel it. I don't think it is going to make that much of a difference with those little mods anyway. Why remove it if it runs fine?

I don't think you will feel anything, but as I said before, I have seen dyno tests that showed similar results or just advancing the timing showing more power.
