You have to have it done regularly or there is a very very good chance your engine will die!

They adjust the fuel pressure by a 3mm allen key in the side of the EMFPA, and set the ignition timing by twisting the Distributor!
The timing is advanced until the point of Det then backed off a little and the full load WOT AFR is set to around 11.8:1, at your desired/safe boost level.

Then you get a nice print out showing your BHP/Torque....

If you have an adjustable cam pulley they may adjust that as well. Well worth it.
