You can, but honestly I wouldn't do it. To be truthful, I don't recommend non-pros self tune at all. It may "feel good" with timing advanced like that but did you adjust fueling as well? There's more to it then just "cranking the dial up". Do it wrong and things break.

Fuel used: 93 octane

Tuning experience notes: Drove mostly on map 3 (25.5 PSI) but have recently gone back to map 2 (23 PSI)
Came from a 2019 Coupe SI i never tuned and after tuning this i really had missed out all that time easily best purchase for the car I plan on getting a custom tune some where down the line but for now this tune is perfect

Thanks for adding your car. Phearable tunes are excellent. Consider one of their "revision" tunes. John will dial in your 1.5 tune to work even better with your installed bolt-ons. Not quite custom but a step up from the off the shelf tune. Well worth it for $99.

Thank you very much for your advice. I plan to stay at 23.5 psi after some adjustments, and this pressure can be sustained throughout the entire WOT process. The car is already very powerful. Fuel is a crucial issue, especially in mainland China. Therefore, these finely-tuned aggressive tunes must be run with a fuel named "Love Run" with an octane rating of 98 (RON). We conduct tests and adjustments on this reliable fuel, and it's essential to switch back to the stock tune when not using this fuel to ensure safety.
BTW， once KC is no longer stable at 0.49, we will abandon further enhancement and look into specific issues

Was going to look into something of the sort once i get a full exhaust and TIP

Only like 1000 miles on the E30 tune it feels like a different car has power through low to high rpms its wants to go!!
Love the tune John at Phearable is the man.

John is the man. Not only a fantastic tuner I car "Mr. Smooth Tune", but a really good guy too.
