go advanced on a n/a motor retarded on a turbo motor.The n/a you can pick up a little power on the top end but only like 1 or 2 hp.On molest hondas you just set the base timing and the ecm will take it where it wants it, you have no control.You can set it on -5 degrees and the ecm will correct it to 14.

Their are ways around this but for a 1 to 2 hp gain its not worth it to modify the wiring and trow a check engine light + you are smog i would just leave it be.1 or 2 hp can easily be pick up elsewhere.

With a stand alone ecm you can adjust timing and air fuel ratio then you pick up some power.Molest honda ecms are set for good emissions and fuel mileage not power keep that in mind.
