please tell me what perky and carnage means, never heard this two words
Engine was running letīs say normal but not powerfull.
Turbo just made 5psi boost.
Except the crank it was timed up correct. All parts (pistons, block, valves,...) look very good.
When the engine will be put together again, it will be adjusted to TDC as it should.
Just wanted to know why the pre owner adjusted the crank to 16 and what is
the difference to the TDC adjustment. Was not sure if there are just changes to the
cam or if also the ignition will be influenced.
