Turning the distributor will only cause you fuel sync problems and not advance the timing. What the mod will do is advance your timing. Leave your distributor where it is.

what is the benefit of this mod? and as far as the tps mod which direction do you rotate the sensor towards the radiator or towards the firewall? thanks
