Titan Performance ModificationsInstall a new part and cant wait to tell us about it? Great! We'd love to hear about it in here.

Re: Can we make a sticky of who can give 2 degree timing advances??
Is this mod really worth it? I just read a comment from the link posted above and one guy mentioned his gas mileage dropped. I'd like to do it, but don't want to run higher octane or lose fuel mileage. I am coming from a 7.3 powerstroke diesel that was getting 13 mpg, this 2006 Titan in town gets 16 and I save around $.50-.60 per gallon over diesel,

It’s definitely worth it. Noticeable throttle response and low-end torque and my gas mileage hasn’t dropped that I can tell, but it depends on your driving style and traffic. I'm getting around 17-18 mpg. Bone stock except for the advance.
Re: Can we make a sticky of who can give 2 degree timing advances??
OK, how about someone in FL to do it. Preferrably southwest FL. I kind of went through a few pages of this thread, but didn't see a listing of someone from Fl to do it. I suppose if I don't like it I could always go back. It's not that expensive of a mod to lose out on really. /

On the higher octane thing..
Here where I live, premium gas is 20 cents per gallon more expensive than the lowest octane. On a 20 gallon fillup, that's 4 dollars difference. If you can't afford 4 bucks extra on each fillup, you oughta be driving a hybrid.

I'm cheap, so don't tell me what I should or shouldn't be driving. I drove my diesel at 13 mpg for 7 years. I am entitled to save myself a few bucks now and then. I also worry for when pulling my trailer.
I don't know I was supposed to be Mr. Moneybags to drive this truck, like your self.
Re: Can we make a sticky of who can give 2 degree timing advances??
Is there anyone in the Myrtle Beach area of South Carolina that would do the 2* timing advance??
Thanks

Being able to afford an extra 4 bucks per fillup makes someone "Mr. Moneybags?"
Re: Can we make a sticky of who can give 2 degree timing advances??
So I went to Trophy Nissan here is Mesquite and the head mechanic told me they cant advance the timing at all. When I pulled up this thread on my iPhone he looked at me stupid and said its all a lie. But anyways, anyone around Mesquite/Dallas willing to do it for me?
