You made due with what you had back in the day, as did many others, and most weren't EFI, big difference. When I first started turbocharging cars, it was much the same as you described. However, with the technology and products of today that you can take advantage of you no longer have to guess.

You also didn't have the internet where everyone is in everyones business to see how many problems people are really having...haha. I'm sure tons of people were blowing stuff up learning.

I understand the learning curve of a new car. Believe me.

And retarded timing = Higher EGT's. Regardless of A/F
