    Turbo charging

    I'm turboing a car and want to know do I need to alter the valve clearance, timing or ignition timing?

    Timing depends on the camshaft, for a small amount of boost you should be ok.

    Ignition timing would need looking at, again depends on what it is.

    I assumed ignition timing would need checking
    I'll have a look at what it is set to when I get chance
    I'm not wanting it on the limit just so it works if you get me
