hey no need to be rude, his message isn't that bad.

Anyway as Cosmo said, do it on a dyno for best and safest result - you can do serious damage if you aren't careful.

Probably best to take it to a performance workshop or an EFI timing workshop that has a dyno. They need to test the output reading while adjusting it to make sure its going to be safe.

It should give a bit of an increase in power output.
