Default new MSD chip, setting CO screw

Just rebuilt the engine with 803's, 3 bar map senor, -31 actuator

i have the MsD 320bhp chip but im wonering if i have to adjust the CO screw as im using a brand new untouched L6 ECU

When i come to a stop she revs to 2k a few times then evens out and idles fine but i dont wanna be pissing about with the Co screw until im 100% sure i know what im doing

Hi pal,
Thanks for using our products. The systems will need the CO setting as per the instructions that I hope came with it.
If not, please email me the serial number to sales@motorsport-developments.co.uk and I will send them across on PDF.

just drop into an MOT garage to use their gas analyser mate, will only take 5 minutes to set the base CO up with the screw on the ECU. Remember only fine adjustments though, let it settle for a few minutes then see where it sits.
