Timing advance with chip?

Ive have heard that your not supposed to advance your timing with a stage 2 chip, but is it ok to with a stage 1 chip? Ive got a stage 2 but everyone says i should go back to a stage 1 chip or stock, but i accidently broke one of the pins off my stock chip, So i am thinking about getting a stage one and advancing my timing and maybe play with the fuel pressure a little bit.

What you need to do is get winaldl or a scanner like the autoxray and check for knock counts so you can find out what your motor likes.

I may be able to get you a stock chip if you need it.

I absolutely agree with 25THRSS but a good rule of thumb is to stay at 0* base with any aftermarket "plug n' play " chip. All of the necessary advance is set in the chip. It is temporary until you tune yourself. That is the only way to go.
